RESUMEN
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: There is a paucity of evidence for managing perioperative anticoagulation in patients with cancer. This review aims to provide clinicians who provide care for patients with cancer an overview of the available information and strategies needed to provide optimal care in a perioperative setting. RECENT FINDINGS: There is new evidence available around the management of perioperative anticoagulation in patients with cancer. The new literature and guidance were analyzed and summarized in this review. Management of perioperative anticoagulation in individuals with cancer is a challenging clinical dilemma. The approach to managing anticoagulation requires clinicians to review both disease and treatment specific patient factors that can contribute to both thrombotic and bleed risks. A thorough patient-specific assessment is essential in ensuring patients with cancer receive appropriate care in the perioperative setting.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes, and treatment strategies that impact cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in this population is an area of growing interest. Pharmacologic agents that reduce CVD risk have been developed, and data supporting their use have grown extensively. Glucagon-like peptide 1 agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors when added to metformin therapy provide the most CV benefit and should be considered in most patients. Data available suggest that sulfonylureas should be avoided in patients at risk for CVD and if a thiazolidinedione is utilized, pioglitazone may be preferred. When selecting an agent, the potential benefit, risk, and cost of each agent should be considered prior to initiation. The purpose of this review is to summarize the literature surrounding the CV effects of antidiabetic agents and to provide practical guidance on their use in patients with type 2 diabetes and CVD.
