Abstract
In this first report examining the Caprini model categories in an esophagectomy population, the VTE incidence in true high-risk patients was high. From this retrospective calculation of risk and events, patients in the highest-risk Caprini group may benefit from an enhanced course of postoperative anticoagulation.
