Résumé

Long-term use of low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWH) for the treatment of cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT) has been well-established. Conversely, the use of thromboprophylaxis in patients with cancer remains controversial in the absence of homogeneous guidelines. Our aim was to assess the awareness of treatment guidelines and the management of patients with CAT in daily clinical practice.
