Key Words Deep vein thrombosis; Pulmonary embolism; Gastro-intestinal cancer; Thromboprophylaxis; Venous thromboembolism
Core Tip Venous thromboembolism (VTE) refers to a hypercoagulable state that remains an important and preventable factor in the surgical treatment of mali­gnancies. The incidence of VTE after major interventions for gastro-intestinal, hepatobiliary and pancreatic neo­plastic disorders is as high as 25% without prophylaxis. Prophylactic use of classic or low-molecular-weight hepa­rin, anti-Xa factors, antithrombotic stocking, intermittent pneumatic compression devices and early mobilization have been described. The aim of this review is to evaluate the results of the current practice of VTE prevention in cancer patients undergoing major abdominal surgical op­erations, with attention to adequately elucidated guide­lines and widely accepted protocols.
