Incidence of venous thromboembolism after surgery for adenocarcinoma in situ and the validity of the modified Caprini score: A propensity score-matched study
Abstract:BackgroundRecently, the new World Health Organization (WHO) tumor classification removed adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) from the diagnosis of lung cancer. However, it remains unclear whether the “malignancy” item should be assessed when the modified Caprini Risk Assessment Model (RAM) is used to assess venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk in AIS. The purpose of our study is to assess differences between AIS and stage IA adenocarcinoma (AD) from a VTE perspective.MethodsA retrospective study was performed on AIS and… Show more
