Summary

Treatment of venous thromboembolism in cancer patients is specific and has been validated in trials that favor the use of LMWH (Low Molecular Weight Heparin) instead of VKA (Vitamin K Antagonist) treatment during 6 months. International recommendations have diffused this option.It is necessary to evaluate the compliance of physicians to this treatment by measuring the number of patients with cancer treated with long term use of LMWH.
