Venous thrombo-embolism (VTE) is a frequent and serious complication of cancer. However, predictive tools for VTE in cancer patients is lacking.~In patients with metastatic broncho-pulmonarycancer, biochemical characteristics might help to identify patients at high risk for VTE, particularly in adenocarcinoma.~The aim of this study is to derive a predictive score combining clinical and biochemical variable that predict VTE in metastatic broncho-pulmonary cancer.
