BACKGROUND: Pelvic osteotomies are surgical procedures that are commonly performed in adolescents and young adults to improve stability or correct various deformities. Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT), are dreaded complications of any major procedure including pelvic osteotomies. Unlike adults, the incidence of DVT and need for prophylactic measures are not well understood in the adolescents. The purpose of this study is to understand the need for VTE prophylaxis in adolescents and determine if their risk profile aligns with adults, who have more established VTE prophylactic guidelines in place for these surgeries.
METHODS: This retrospective cohort study utilized data from the TriNetX Research Network, which includes records from over 80 healthcare organizations and more than 120 million patients. De-identified patient data from January 1, 2003, to March 1, 2024, were extracted using relevant ICD-9 and ICD-10 procedural codes. The study included 2 cohorts: patients aged 13 to 17 years (adolescents) and patients 18 years and older (adults) who underwent pelvic osteotomies. To control for confounding variables, propensity score matching was employed based on sex and relevant comorbidities, including diabetes mellitus, tobacco use, and overweight/obesity. Statistical significance was set at P <0.01.
RESULTS: A total of 2374 patients successfully matched in each cohort. Within 90 days following surgical intervention, adult patients had overall risks of 4.5%, 1.9%, and 5.9%, whereas adolescent patients had overall risks of 1.3%, 0.5%, and 1.4% for DVT (RR: 3.419), PE (RR: 4.182), and either DVT or PE (RR: 4.118), respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: This study examines the rate of VTE in a large cohort of adolescents undergoing pelvic osteotomies. Although we found the rates to be lower in adolescents compared with adults, the high absolute risk in adolescents-above 1%, the threshold established in the literature for considering prophylaxis-underscores the need for tailored risk stratification strategies and targeted thromboprophylaxis protocols for this population.
LEVELS OF EVIDENCE: Level III: case-control study or retrospective cohort study.
