From: Splenic volume and splenic vein diameter are independent pre-operative risk factors of portal vein thrombosis after splenectomy: a retrospective cohort study

 

Univariate analysis

Multivariate analysis

Splenic vein diameter > 10 mm

OR = 4.92 (2.1–11.8) (p < 0.0001)

OR = 3.03 (1.1–8.6) (p < 0.001)

Splenic weight > 500 g

OR = 8.72 (3.3–22.9) (p < 0.001)

OR = 5.22 (1.8–15.2) (p < 0.01)

Lymphoma

OR = 7.39 (2.7–20.1) (p < 0.01)

OR = 1.6 (0.7–3.6) (p < 0.07)

Platelets < 120 G/L

OR = 2.17 (1.1–2.6) (p < 0.05)

OR = 1.2 (0.5–1.7) (p < 0.10)

  1. Bold values are statistically significant values from the statistical analyses (with p < 0.05)
  2. Results of univariate and multivariate analysis of pre-operative risk factors are expressed as Odds Ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) in brackets
