Leukemia and Risk of Venous Thromboembolism: A Meta-analysis and Systematic Review of 144 Studies Comprising 162,126 Patients

Abstract Venous thromboembolism (VTE) has significant clinical implications in leukemia patients. However, the actual frequency of this complication remains unknown. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to better estimate the frequency of this complication and to assess the risk factor...
