    Thromboembolism occurs 4 to 7 times more frequently in cancer patients than in the general population, with lymphoma patients at higher risk.

    A study of 790 lymphoma patients found a 9.75% incidence of thromboembolism, with non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients experiencing higher rates than Hodgkin lymphoma.

    The study developed a lymphoma-specific nomogram to predict thromboembolism risk, addressing limitations of existing general cancer-associated risk scores.

  • 4

    Thromboembolism events were most common after the first cycle of chemotherapy, highlighting the need for timely risk assessment in lymphoma treatment.

    The study's findings emphasize the importance of tailored thromboprophylaxis strategies for high-risk lymphoma patients to improve outcomes.
