Incidence of venous thromboembolism after surgery for adenocarcinoma in situ and the validity of the modified Caprini score: A propensity score-matched study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Recently, 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.

Methods

A retrospective study was performed on AIS and IA adenocarcinoma in our hospital from January 2018 to December 2021, and divided into AIS group and AD group. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to compare the incidence of VTE and coagulation function, and to analyze whether the RAM is more effective
