Abstract

The surgical interventions in patients with malignant tumors of liver cause a development of various forms of syndrome of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) with significant increasing of concentration of markers of intravascular blood coagulation against the background of dramatic decreasing of activity of factors of prothrombin complex, level of natural anti-coagulants and components of fibrinolytic system. The thrombosis of veins of various localization developed in 12 patients with subacute form of DIC. The application of low-molecular heparin in combination with concentrate of anti-thrombin III and freshly frozen plasma decreases intensity of intra-vascular blood coagulation and results in reduction of factors of coagulation and is an efficient and adequate method of treatment of thrombosis and thromboembolism of pulmonary artery in oncologic patients. The significant increasing of level of D-dimer, von Willebrand factor against the background of dramatic decreasing of prothrombin activity, content of antithrombin III and level of plasminogen are hemostasiologic factors of development of severe liver insufficiency. The corresponding timely diagnostic and correction permits to ameliorate results of surgical treatm...Continue Reading
