Brain tumors, particularly malignant gliomas, have a high incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE), but current guidelines do not support primary VTE prophylaxis for ambulatory patients with brain tumors. The often subtle presentation of VTE warrants increased vigilance for early diagnosis and treatment. This article presents a case study of a patient with VTE and offers suggestions for future research.
脑肿瘤,尤其是恶性胶质瘤,静脉血栓栓塞(VTE)的发生率很高,但目前的指南不支持对门诊脑肿瘤患者进行原发性VTE预防。VTE的表现往往很隐匿,需要提高警惕以便早期诊断和治疗。本文介绍了一例VTE患者的病例研究,并为未来的研究提供了建议。
