Clinicopathologic features and prognosis of 71 patients with gastric cancer and disseminated intravascular coagulation.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Gastric cancer consists of solid tumors with a tendency for disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). DIC is rare in patients with stomach cancer, and there have been few studies on this condition. We aimed to perform comprehensive analyses of the prognosis and clinicopathologic characteristics of stomach cancer patients with DIC.

Methods

Between June 2006 and March 2020, 14,016 patients at Fujian Cancer Hospital were diagnosed with stomach cancer. We reviewed their medical records and found that 105 of these patients were diagnosed with DIC. After excluding patients who were lost to follow-up, 71 patients with DIC remained. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed to observe clinical characteristics and prognostic factors, and the Kaplan-Meier survival
