Popis: The aim of this single-centre 10-year retrospective observational study was to evaluate the profile of Chinese cancerous patients complicated with venous thromboembolism (VTE) based on demographic features, clinical characteristics, and medication exposure. Consecutive 1482 patients with solid tumor complicated with VTE at a tertiary center between 2012 and 2021 were retrospectively enrolled. Data were collected on demographics, comorbidities, discharge diagnoses, laboratory examination data, treatment details, and imaging description of the lesion. The overall incidence of clinical VTE was 1.35% in hospitalized patients with cancer in our center. Lung cancer was the most frequent tumor subtype for developing VTE events, accounting for 24.83% of all cases. Over half of the patients (66.60%) were observed to have an increased risk of VTE within the first 6 months of cancer diagnosis. Close to half of the patients (46.49%) had received chemotherapy within 6 months prior to the diagnosis of VTE. The frequency of massive ascites group (>2000 mL) in gynecological patients with VTE was significantly larger than that of nonmassive ascites group (≤2000 mL) ( P
