Purpose of the study:

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the possible causes or risk factors for the occurrence of venous thrombotic events (VTE) after shoulder arthroscopy.

Methods:

Two cases that occurred in the practice were evaluated for the study. Evaluation of their medical history, procedures and post-operative care was made. The information was evaluated for possible risk factors that could have led to the VTE. Literature reports were also evaluated. All the relevant data (personal and literature) was used to determine risk factors that could help identify high risk patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery.
