Abstract

Objectives Thromboembolism is one of the most common complications during induction therapy of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Procoagulant microparticles in the circulation may cause thromboembolic events. The aim of our study was to determine the levels of apoptotic, platelet-derived, endothelial-derived, and tissue factor-positive microparticles of children with ALL at diagnosis and during induction therapy.
