Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) were described more than one decade ago, but recently, the interest in these structures has increased due to their involvement in cancer progression, cancer-related thrombosis, and development of metastasis. This protumoral role of NETs strengthens their potential as new prognostic markers of cancer.
