Patients undergoing major thoracic surgery especially for cancers are at a high risk of perioperative thromboembolism. Current guidelines recommended either heparin sodium (unfractionated heparin) or low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) for those patients at high risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). However, the rational timing of starting heparin has not yet been well established, because DVT can be caused by not only surgery but also comorbidities as well as prolonged hospital stay, and thoracic surgeons always concerned about heparin-related increased risk of intra- or post-operative bleeding. Therefore, this study aimed to establish the safety profile of preoperative administration of heparin for thromboprophylaxis in Chinese patients intended for thoracoscopic major thoracic surgery.
