The aim of this study was to assess the frequency of pulmonary thromboembolism in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients (pts) treated in the Institute of Tuberculosis and Chest Diseases in the years 1980-1994. The second aim was to assess whether the occurrence of thromboembolism is connected with the progression of cancer. Pulmonary thromboembolism was recognised in 17 out of 845 pts (2.01%) treated for small cell lung cancer, that is in 2.01% of pts. The frequency of thromboembolism was 8% among patients in which autopsy was done. Pulmonary thromboembolism occurred in 7 pts during progressive disease but also in 9 with partial or complete regression of SCLC. The potential role of chemo- and radiotherapy in the development of thromboembolism in the last group was discussed. |
