Venous thromboembolism is the second leading cause of death in cancer patients and its incidence seems underestimated. In addition, cancer patients have an increased risk of developing atrial fibrillation, which may be the first presentation of cancer itself. The primary aim of this study was to define the incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and atrial fibrillation in a real-word series of advanced cancer patients.

Abstract
Venous thromboembolism is the second leading cause of death in cancer patients and its incidence seems underestimated. In addition, cancer patients have an increased risk of developing atrial fibrillation, which may be the first presentation of cancer itself. The primary aim of this study was to define the incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and atrial fibrillation in a real-word series of advanced cancer patients.File in questo prodotto:
