Deep Vein Thrombosis as an Initial Symptom of Malignant Tumor: A Case Report of Angiosarcoma in the Iliac Vein

Although deep vein thrombosis, as well as subsequent pulmonary embolism, is one of the major and fatal complications in cases of malignant neoplasm, it most often occurs after the diagnosis or treatment of the tumor. On the other hand, malignant tumors that develop with deep vein thrombosis as a spe...
