BACKGROUND
Perioperative antithrombotic treatment for gastric cancer patients receiving chronic anticoagulation and/or antiplatelet agents requires an understanding of potential bleeding and thromboembolic risks. However, no study has examined the safety aspects of perioperative antithrombotic
BACKGROUND
Endoscopic submucosal dissection is a novel technique that is expected to be a curative treatment for early gastric cancers. Anti-coagulants and anti-platelet agents are widely used, especially in elderly patients, to prevent thromboembolic disease. However, the feasibility of endoscopic
High-quality evidence suggests that aspirin is a promising agent for cancer prevention and treatment. Direct inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) pathway is generally thought to be the main mechanism by which aspirin inhibits cancer development. However, either pharmacological properties of
In-stent thrombosis (IST) after carotid artery stenting (CAS) is a rare but potentially devastating complication. We present a case of early IST after CAS despite sufficient antiplatelet therapy in a patient with bladder cancer. A 77-year-old man under preventive triple antiplatelet therapy
Three different murine tumors, CT26 colon adenocarcinoma, Lewis lung carcinoma, and B16 amelanotic melanoma, were injected into syngeneic mice (BALB/c and C57BL/6J) to test the effect of rabbit anti-mouse platelet antibody on the development of pulmonary metastases. Antiplatelet antibody, when
The role of anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents in tumour growth and prognosis is not new, and currently under intense investigation. Some randomised data strongly suggest that this association exists, but it is complex, and not necessarily pointed at the same direction. The potential mechanisms
The optimal duration and cancer risks of antiplatelet therapy following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are unclear. We compared cancer and all-cause mortality after dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for the combination of clopidogrel and aspirin (ASA) versus ASA alone over 18 months
The TRITON-TIMI 38 was a head-to-head trial to assess the efficacy and safety of the experimental antiplatelet agent prasugrel vs. standard care with clopidogrel on top of aspirin. Besides some ischemic protection at expense of overwhelming bleeding disadvantage, prasugrel treated patients
BACKGROUND
Perioperative bleeding concerns have led to the general recommendation that antiplatelet agents (APAs) be discontinued 7-10 days preoperatively, but this could increase the risk of perioperative cardiovascular events. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the safety of APA
BACKGROUND
Information on the safety of transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURBT) in patients receiving anti-thromboembolic drugs is currently lacking. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical safety of TURBT in patients receiving anti-thromboembolic agents compared with patients not taking
Fibrin and platelets contribute to the development of blood borne metastases by facilitating the arrest of tumor cell emboli in the microcirculation. We have previously demonstrated that the fibrinolytic agent streptokinase inhibits pulmonary tumor cell seeding in an animal model. To determine
Several studies have suggested that antiplatelet (AP) or anticoagulant (AC) therapy may improve outcome in men with prostate cancer. We evaluated the effects of AP/AC therapy and tested the hypothesis that platelet count may also be associated with The aim of the present study was to evaluate the clinical impact of the perioperative use of antiplatelet/anticoagulation therapy for postoperative bleeding after esophagectomy for esophageal cancer.Patients were selected from the medical records of To present the experience of the upper Gastrointestinal Unit of the Surgical Department of National and Kapodistrian University of Athens in order to inform surgeons of the exact harms and benefits associated with their decisions concerning management of antiplatelet The prophylactic closure of mucosal defects after endoscopic resection is known to prevent postoperative bleeding in colorectal lesions. However, closure of large mucosal defects is difficult with conventional clips only, and several closure techniques have been previously described; use of an
