Abstract

Mendes Alvarenga1*, Alexander Almeida1 and Ricardo Horta1,2

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a major public health concern. To minimize the incidence of perioperative venous thromboembolism, risk assessment and prevention are essential. This study was designed to assess the frequency and result of VTE episodes in a cosmetic surgery facility, as well as to establish if good practices were followed. Recently, the American Association of Plastic Surgeons conducted a thorough survey and meta-study of venous thromboembolism risk delineation, as well as the hazards and advantages of chemoprophylaxis in the plastic surgical treatment population.
