The trends in venous thromboembolism occurrence and prevention after minimally invasive varicose vein surgery

OBJECTIVES: To assess the trends of VTE occurrence and prevention in varicose vein surgery.

METHOD: The registry-based CAPSIVS trial (NCT03041805) analysis includes results in 1878 lower limbs. The primary outcome is a 28-day symptomatic or asymptomatic DVT revealed with duplex ultrasound.

RESULTS: Any DVT, including EHIT, was observed in 3.4%, while symptomatic in 0.5%. Prophylactic anticoagulation was administrated in 20.4% with LMWH (13.2%) or DOAC (7.1%) for patients with higher VTE risk but did not reduce the events rate. With propensity score matching DOACs were superior to LMWHs (1.5% vs 9.8%). Duration of anticoagulation was essential: the lowest incidence (4.2%) was associated with prophylaxis for up to 7 days, while a single LMWH injection resulted in a DVT rate of 8.8%. With individual VTE history, any anticoagulation duration appeared insufficient.

CONCLUSIONS: Prophylactic anticoagulation after varicose vein surgery should be based on the individual VTE risk and provided for ≥7-30 days.
