ABSTRACT
In 90 patients with malignant neoplasia of larynx, stomach and cervix uteri the functional state of hemostasis was investigated within the process of radiotherapy and in radiotherapy and radiosensitization by metronidazole. Aim of this work is to answer the question if metronidazole affects the state of organism besides its effect on radiosensitivity of tumor tissue, especially the system of hemostasis, the impairment of which can not seldom result in thrombohemorrhagic complications in oncologic patients as is known. It was pointed out that the thrombophilic status of the blood of patients with stomach carcinoma continues to be unchanged and the patients are endangered for thrombosis potentially. In consequences of radiotherapy and doses of metronidazole the capacity for adhesion is decreased in thrombocytes of patients with laryngeal and cervical carcinomas to a high degree, whereby the thrombogenic potential of blood is reduced and with that the risk for origin of intravascular thrombosis.
