Independent Risk Factors Associated With Venous Thromboembolism After Knee Arthroscopy: A Retrospective Study of 222 Patients
The incidence of VTE after knee arthroscopy was 16.7% at the 2-week follow-up. Age >32 years, BMI >23 kg/m<sup>2</sup>, hyperlipidemia, and postoperative D-dimer >0.63 mg/L were independent risk factors of postoperative VTE within 2 weeks after knee arthroscopy. For patients with knee arthroscopy, the cutoff value of postoperative D-dimer for VTE was found to be 0.63 mg/L for timely intervention.
