Popis: | Robotic surgery for gynecologic malignancy is associated with a lower rate of venous thromboembolism (VTE) than laparotomy. Obese patients represent a particularly high-risk group for VTE, but prior studies tend to focus on patients with a much lower BMI and without extended VTE prophylaxis. Our objective was to examine the role of extended thromboprophylaxis in obese patients who underwent robotic-assisted surgery for endometrial cancer. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of obese patients (BMI ≥ 35 kg/m |
