“…In contrast, in the historical comparison group, VTE was not discovered in any patients preoperatively, but it developed in 11 patients postoperatively. Six of these patients developed DVT early in the postoperative period; progression to PE was evident in four of these patients, two of whom eventually died . This article suggests that the preoperative discovery of asymptomatic VTE and appropriate management may prevent the postoperative onset of fatal PE.…”

“…These frequencies of pre‐treatment VTE are comparable to our results in cervical and endometrial cancers (Table ), suggesting that patients with non‐gynecological cancer may also have considerable frequencies of asymptomatic VTE before treatment. In a study of bladder cancer patients who underwent radical cystectomy, the screened group ( n = 65) and the historical comparison group that did not undergo screening ( n = 78) were compared . In the screened group, asymptomatic DVT was discovered preoperatively in nine patients (13.9%), only three developed DVT, and none progressed to PE postoperatively as a result of preventive treatments such as placement of an inferior vena cava filter.…”

“…Before treatment, PE was discovered in 8.8-13.3% of ovarian cancer [13,14], 3.0-4.7% of endometrial cancer [13,15], 1.1-1.4% of cervical cancer [13,16], and 2.9% of advanced pancreatic cancer [17] cases. Moreover, whereas PE was not discovered in bladder cancer or stomach cancer cases, DVT was found in 13.9% and 4.4% of the patients, respectively [18]. VTE is common in ovarian cancer due to vascular dehydration caused by ascites [19] and venous compression by a large tumor [20].…”

“…17 After pneumonectomy, VTE incidence is high in excised tissue of non-small-cell lung cancer patients. 18 Cancer patients with acutemyocardial infarction or stroke usually are the population of high risk of VTE. 19 DVT occurring in the lower leg is a single sign of metastatic urinary tract cancer, 20 while the cancer patients with central venous catheter placement may develop upper-extremity DVT.…”
