Aim: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) increases the risk of thromboembolic events (TEEs). In this retrospective study, we aimed to determine the rate of TEEs in MPM and investigate its relationship with the presence of thrombocytosis, the disease stage, and the tumor histopathology.
Methods: The study included 178 patients who were histopathologically diagnosed as MPM between the years January 2008 and June 2014.
