Cancer patients are prone to venous thromboembolism (VTE), and this hypercoagulability favors tumor growth and metastasis. After a brief review of the clinical aspects of VTE and cancer, we discuss the pathogenesis of hypercoagulability with an emphasis on the role of tissue factor (TF). The discovery that, in addition to tumor cells, TF is express...
