Risk factors of venous thromboembolism associated with Oral maxillofacial-head and neck cancer

Abstract

The association between venous thromboembolism (VTE) and malignancy has been demonstrated by a large number of studies, cancer is associated with thrombosis, which also has an impact on the proliferation and extension of cancer. The pathogenesis of cancer-related venous thromboembolism is complex, and the formation of thrombosis is the result of the complex interaction of multiple factors. This article reviews the pathological mechanism and related factors of venous thromboembolism associated with oral maxillofacial-head and neck malignancies as follows, by discussing the risk factors of VTE in patients with o oral maxillofacial-head and neck malignancies, more clearly understands the pathogenesis and risk factors of VTE associated with it, better prevent VTE in clinical practical application, strengthen risk assessment, improve the understanding of VTE related factors, do a good job in the education of patients and medical staff, individualized management and anticoagulant therapy for patients, close follow-up and regular review after treatment, so as to improve the life treatment of patients, prolong the survival time, and reduce the occurrence of VTE associated with oral maxillofacial head and neck malignancies.
