Abstract

It is well established that cancer increases the risk of venous thrombosis. Conversely, the mechanisms involved in haemostasis play a major role in the tumour development, facilitating tumour proliferation and altering the microenvironment, with major consequences in terms of the metastatic process. It is therefore mandatory to take the measure of this double bond between cancer and haemostasis. The clinicianwill be aware that venous thromboembolism is difficult to diagnose in cancer patients. At all stages of care, preventive and curativemeasures will be implemented, based on current recommendations and, if applicable, the standards which have been developed. With the French Group Thrombosis and Cancer (GFTC), a dynamics has been boosted in order to implement “RCP-thrombose”.

Résumé

Le cancer est une maladie favorisant la thrombose veineuse. Réciproquement, des mécanismes impliqués dans l’hémostase jouent un rôle déterminant dans le développement de la tumeur, en facilitant la prolifération tumorale et en modifiant le microenvironnement, ce qui peut avoir des conséquences sur le processus métastatique. Prendre la mesure de ce double lien apparaît aujourd’hui comme une nécessité. Le clinicien sera donc sensibilisé afin de ne pas méconnaître un diagnostic de maladie thromboembolique veineuse. À toutes les étapes de la prise en charge du patient atteint de cancer, lesmesures préventives et curatives seront mises en place, s’appuyant sur les recommandations en vigueur et, le cas échéant, sur les référentiels qui auront été élaborés. Avec le Groupe français thrombose et cancer (GFTC), une dynamique est insufflée en France pour que de véritables RCP thromboses soient mises en place.
