Thrombosis in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia Part III. Pathogenesis of thrombosis in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia: effects of host environment
Abstract
This concluding section of the series will evaluate the role of host environment in the development of thromboembolism (TE) in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The available evidence suggests that TE in association with childhood ALL is a multifactorial entity resulting from the interaction of the disease, chemotherapy and its effects, and possible prothrombotic states inherent to the host.
