Dyslipidemia is a well known risk factor for the development of atherothrombosis, however, its involvement in venous thromboembolism (VTE) is still debated. Low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) have been found to be associated with VTE, which represents a common complication of cancer and its treatment. VTE incidence increases in cancer patients, especially those undergoing chemotherapy.

Abstract

Dyslipidemia is a well known risk factor for the development of atherothrombosis, however, its involvement in venous thromboembolism (VTE) is still debated. Low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) have been found to be associated with VTE, which represents a common complication of cancer and its treatment. VTE incidence increases in cancer patients, especially those undergoing chemotherapy.
