Neutrophil Extracellular Traps: Potential Thrombotic Markers and Therapeutic Targets in Colorectal Cancer.

Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are promising promoters in venous thromboembolism (VTE). In the present study, we have investigated the potential thrombogenic role of NETs in colorectal cancer (CRC). A total of 583 patients with gastrointestinal malignancies who were diagnosed with or without VTE by extremities arteriovenous ultrasound and computed tomography were enrolled.
