Elevated levels of homocysteine are usually easily treated with folate 30 31 and the presence of anticardiolipin antibodies suggests the possible need for prolonged and intensive anticoagulation 32 33 . B. Cancer Data from the Danish National Registry of Patients were used to investigate the risk of a diagnosis of cancer following the detection of VTE not associated with Venous Thromboembolism 217 Figure 3 Cumulative probability of newly diagnosed cancer after a first VTE episode according to whether the VTE was idiopathic or nonidiopathic.

The risk was substantially elevated only during the first 6 months of follow-up and declined rapidly thereafter. Of those diagnosed with cancer within 1 year after the initial VTE hospitalization 40 had distant metastases at the time of the cancer diagnosis. The association between cancer and VTE was most pronounced for cancers of the pancreas ovary liver primary hepatic cancer and brain. In the Swedish Cancer Registry the risk of .
