Contribution of Leukocyte Platelet Aggregates to Development of Thrombosis in Patients With Advanced Cancer

Abstract

 

Aim: To determine the relations between  leukocyte platelet aggregates and thrombosis in patients with solid tumors who are susceptible to inflammation and thrombosis. Method: Laboratory and clinical data of 28 metastatic gastrointestinal tumors, 33 metastatic lung tumors, 29 operated tumor patients, were compared with a control group consisting of 12 healthy controls . Monocyte platelet aggregates, granulocyte platelet aggregates; thrombin-antithrombin III complex and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels were studied. The formation of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) was prospectively evaluated in patients. Results: Monocyte platelet aggregate levels of metastatic gastrointestinal tumors and operated tumors were found to be significantly higher compared to the control group (p: 0.05, 0.029, respectively). Granulocyte platelet aggregates level in all of the tumors of metastatic gastrointestinal, metastatic lung and operated tumors were found to be significantly higher compared with the control group (p = 0.015; 0,0,012; 0.01, respectively). No significant difference was observed between the groups in the levels of thrombin-antithrombin III complex and neutrophil lymphocyte ratio. The incidence of DVT was identified as  22% (18 patients). Conclusion: The increase in levels of leukocyte platelet aggregate values increases in cancer patients of different stages and different tissue origin. To confirm the results we have achieved, and to demonstrate the potential impact of this information in estimation of thrombotic events in cancer patients more studies conducted in larger groups of patients are needed.
