Abstract

Background and purpose

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a potentially fatal perioperative complication. Understanding the risk factors for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and initiating appropriate prophylaxis is pivotal for reducing the risk of VTE. The purpose of this study was to clarify the perioperative risk factors for DVT in patients undergoing surgery for gastric cancer.

Methods

We reviewed the findings of lower limb ultrasonography performed in 160 patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

Results

The preoperative and postoperative incidence of DVT was 4.4% (7/160) and 7.2% (11/153), respectively. All postoperative DVTs were of the distal type, whereas preoperative DVTs were of the proximal (n = 3) and distal type (n = 4). None of the patients suffered symptomatic VTE. Multivariate analysis indicated that depth of invasion and D-dimer concentration were independent risk factors for preoperative DVT and that gender and performance status were risk factors for postoperative DVT. Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that the optimal cut-off D-dimer concentration was 1.4 μg/mL.

Conclusions

The incidence of perioperative DVT was low for patients undergoing gastric cancer surgery. Therefore, the risk-stratified application of perioperative pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis is thought to be more appropriate than routine pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis for Japanese patients undergoing surgery for gastric cancer.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.
