Duplex Ultrasound Screening for Deep Venous Thrombosis in Patients Undergoing Craniotomy for Intracranial Tumors: A Single Institutional Series
Brain tumor pathology may not increase the risk for DVT and may not be a good indicator for the selection of patients for DVT screening with DUS. The incidence of DVT in selective preoperative DUS was similar to studies that performed DUS on all patients. Further studies across multiple institutions are needed to develop criteria for DUS in brain tumor surgery.
