Construction and validation of a risk prediction model for venous thromboembolism post-VATS in simultaneous multicentric primary lung cancers.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Synchronous multiple primary lung cancers (sMPLCs) represent 0.8% to 20% of new lung cancer diagnoses. Currently, there is a lack of risk prediction models for venous thromboembolism (VTE) after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) in sMPLC patients. This study seeks to create and validate a VTE risk prediction model tailored for sMPLC patients undergoing VATS.

Methods

A retrospective cohort analysis was conducted on patients who underwent lung cancer resection from November 2017 to December 2024 using Hospital Information System (HIS), telephone follow-up, and the Questionnaire Star electronic questionnaire. Categorical variables were analyzed using χ² tests and continuous variables were assessed with t-tests for univariate analysis. Vari
