Dr. Patricia Greco Publishes Original Research in Green Journal

Dr. Greco and team publish article regarding incidence and timing of thromboembolic events.

 

Dr. Patricia Greco was recently featured in the Green Journal with her original research, "Incidence and Timing of Thromboembolic Events in Patients With Ovarian Cancer Undergoing Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy". Co-authors include, Ali A. Bazzi, MD, Karen McLean, MD, PhD, R. Kevin Reynolds, MD, Ryan J. Spencer, MD, Carolyn M. Johnston, MD, J. Rebecca Liu, MD, and Shitanshu Uppal, MBBS. This was a retrospective cohort study of patients diagnosed with ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer and receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy from January 2009 to May 2014 at a single academic institution. The objective was to identify the incidence and timing of venous thromboembolism as well as any associated risk factors in the patient population. See original article here.

 

Co-author, Dr. Uppal was able to discuss the findings of this research with the Green Journal in a recent podcast. Please see the Editors' Pick for June 2017 for the full podcast here.
