The Impact of Circulating Tumor Cells on Venous Thromboembolism and Cardiovascular Events in Bladder Cancer Patients Treated with Radical Cystectomy

The Impact of Circulating Tumor Cells on Venous Thromboembolism and Cardiovascular Events in Bladder Cancer Patients Treated with Radical Cystectomy

Background: Cancer is a relevant risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Circulating tumor cells (CTC) are associated with an increased risk of VTE in breast cancer. In addition, circulating cell-free nucleic acids have been associated with cardiovascular events (CVE). Objective: To investigat...
