Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Cancer patients have an increased risk of perioperative complications undergoing surgery procedures. Postoperative complications caused by thrombembolic events after robot- assisted surgery in major urological procedures have been reported and associated with an increased lenght of stay in the hospital. We therefore aimed to investigate in a retrospective analysis 250 patients undergoing robotic-assisted radical cystectomy and prostatectomy procedures for risk factors for thrombembolic events in this specific patient population.
