Abstract
- In 20 patients with acute leukemia the thrombin-mediated fibrin monomer complexes (SFMC) were determined before and after remission induction chemotherapy for several weeks to assess the extent of hypercoagulability. Increased levels of SFMC were observed in patients with high leukocyte cell counts after induction chemotherapy which may reflect the release of thromboplastic material from destructed leukemic cells. Patients with low leukocyte counts showed only a moderate increase in SFMC. A low concentration of antithrombin III (
