Stroke in cancer patients.

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports
Teri Nguyen, L M DeAngelis

Abstract

Cancer patients are at increased risk for stroke from direct and indirect effects of their malignancy. Some tumors are at high risk for cerebrovascular complications. Certain stroke mechanisms are specific to cancer, such as compression and occlusion of cerebral vessels by tumor, coagulopathy predisposing to hemorrhage and thrombosis, and treatment-related atherosclerosis. Special consideration for these mechanisms needs to be made when evaluating cancer patients, and treatment aimed at secondary prevention needs to incorporate overall prognosis and goals of care.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
