”Important review published today by my research group”
This review explores treatment options for venous thromboembolism (VTE) in cancer patients with significant thrombocytopenia (platelet count <50 × 10⁹/L), balancing the need for effective anticoagulation against the increased risk of bleeding.
It outlines strategies such as adjusting anticoagulation doses, using platelet transfusions, or temporarily stopping treatment based on the severity and duration of thrombocytopenia and the patient’s thrombotic risk.
