Objective: To estimate the incidence and prognostic significance of postoperative pulmonary embolism after gynecologic oncology surgery.
Methods: All patients who underwent gynecologic oncology surgery from June 2001 to June 2003 and received venous thromboembolism prophylaxis with only intermittent pneumatic compression and early ambulation were identified from our database. Patients were grouped by procedure (major/minor abdominal or nonabdominal surgery), diagnosis (malignant/nonmalignant), and cancer subtype.
Objectives: To review our experience with the diagnosis and prognosis of pulmonary embolism (PE) in gynecologic oncology patients.
Methods: Spiral CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) studies on gynecologic oncology patients were collected from our radiology database from 6/2001 to 6/2003. Patient charts were retrospectively reviewed.
