Is it possible to have a brain tumor and have a blood clot in your lungs?
Simply having a brain tumor places you at a significantly higher risk of developing blood clots.,These clots are called “deep venous thromboses” and occur in the veins of the legs. The danger of DVT’s is that they can break off and be carried by the bloodstream to the lungs, where they cause “pulmonary thromboemboli” —blood clots in the pulmonary arteries.
