Book Description
In this book, leaders in the field explore our current understanding of thrombosis and hemostasis in cancer and address key questions on the subject. Among the topics discussed are the mechanisms that cancers use to activate the coagulation system, and those by means of which an activated coagulation system can lead to more aggressive cancer growth. Clinical chapters examine the role of thrombosis prophylaxis and treatment, central line-associated thrombosis, and cancer-associated hemorrhage. Subsequent chapters deal with the management of chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia, anticoagulation in the presence of brain metastases, and other unique challenges in the interaction of thrombosis and hemostasis in cancer. It has been 150 years since Armand Trousseau first described the well-known association between cancer and an increased risk of thrombosis, which may be considered the first paraneoplastic syndrome ever identified. More recently, numerous studies have indicated that activation of the coagulation system by cancer not only increases the likelihood of thrombosis, but is also associated with a more aggressive cancer phenotype. By familiarizing readers with the latest developments in this complex and challenging field, the book offers a valuable resource for scientists and clinicians alike.

Book Description
Coagulation in Cancer informs professionals working in the field of cancer about the pathophysiologic mechanisms of cancer-related thrombosis and bleeding. It provides assistance in recognizing the various bleeding and clotting disorders associated with cancer and includes current recommendations for the management of hemorrhage, and prevention and treatment of thrombosis in the patient with malignancy. This volume is a valuable addition to the literature on cancer and coagulation.

Book Description
Blood coagulation is a highly conserved and spontaneous physiological response after vessel injury. It restricts the excessive blood loss from our body. It includes a plethora of plasma reactions resulting in the formation of thrombin and a series of tightly regulated intracellular reactions mediated by platelet activation. In the last century, our understanding of the mechanisms and effects of blood coagulation had made significant development. Beginning from the early clinical observations of rare patients with genetic clotting disorders, our vision has reached to the introduction of newer technologies: from blood coagulation experiments to protein chemistry, to gene targeting technologies and to cure hereditary disorders by external medicinal assistance. Recently in the last decade, several studies have suggested an important contribution of blood coagulation factors in tumor progression. Here in this thesis, I have tried to explore some unanswered questions regarding i) The activation of cancer signaling pathways by clotting factors in the tumor microenvironment and its impact on primary tumor growth. ii) Intravascular activation of blood coagulation and its impact on tumor metastasis. iii) Targeting the molecular mechanism of the inflammatory ability of cancer cells to improve the therapeutic approach against cancer progression.

Book Description
By Dr. Sandeepan Halder: Have you ever wondered how a man machine works? As "the machine man," I would like to take this opportunity to explain how our body's haemostasis works by answering some of the most frequently asked questions. The main goal of my research is to understand better correlation between cancer patients and coagulation disturbances. This concise manual will give you, the exhaustive coverage of the current pathogenesis of coagulation disturbances in underlying cancer with the associated clinical correlation. The focus is on the most common and challenging aspects which a clinician and pathologist, both encounters while dealing with the malignant condition. This generously illustrated and user-friendly volume will provide the entire spectrum of coagulation cascade, mechanism of DIC, coagulation factor inhibitors and simple laboratory test to pick up the underlying disorder in cancer patients. "How all is happening in our system?" the answer to your curiosity is here.
