Correlation between fibrinogen and D-dimer levels with low-frequency piezoelectric thromboelastography (LPTEG) data in patients with confirmed prostate cancer

Abstract

Prostate cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in men, it ratio increases greatly after age of 65. Studies had proved that patients with prostate cancer have significantly higher D-dimer level with normal fibrinogen data(1). The aim of this study is to establish correlation between fibrinogen and D-dimer levels and LPTEG data in preoperative settings.
