ABSTRACT
Neurosurgeons often face this dilemma. Brain neoplasm patients undergoing neurosurgery are at a high risk of venous thrombosis. However, antithrombotic drugs may induce bleeding complications. Therefore, we compared the efficacy and safety of prophylaxis for venous thromboembolism (VTE) in brain neoplasm patients undergoing neurosurgery. We searched Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Ovid MEDLINE(R), and Embase from inception to January 2022 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the prophylactic measures efficacy and safety for VTE in brain neoplasm patients undergoing neurosurgery. The main efficacy outcome was symptomatic or asymptomatic VTE. The safety outcomes included major bleeding, minor bleeding, all occurrences of bleeding, and all-cause mortality. We used (Log) odds ratio (OR) of various chemoprophylaxis regimens to judge the safety and effectiveness of VTE. Additionally, all types of intervention were ranked by the Surface Under the Cumulative Ranking (SUCRA) value. We included 10 RCTs with 1128 brain neoplasm patients undergoing neurosurgery. For symptomatic or asymptomatic VTE and proximal DVT or PE, DOACs, compared with placebo, can significantly reduce the events. DOACs were superior to all other interventions in the rank plot of these events. For major bleeding reduction, unfractionated heparin (SUCRA value = 0.21) demonstrated better safety efficacy than others. For minor bleeding reduction, DOACs had a significantly higher risk of minor bleeding compared with placebo [Log OR 16.76, 95% CrI (1.53, 61.13)], LMWH [Log OR 15.68, 95% CrI (0.26, 60.10)] and UFH [Log OR 15.93, 95% CrI (0.22, 60.16)] respectively. Except for placebo (SUCRA values of 0.13), UFH (SUCRA values of 0.37) depicted better safety efficacy than others. For all-cause mortality, we found UFH always had significantly lower all-cause mortality compared with low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) [Log OR = 14.17, 95% CrI (0.05, 48.35)]. UFH plus intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) (SUCRA value of 0.12) displayed the best safety for all-cause mortality. In our study, DOACs were more effective as prophylaxis for VTE in brain neoplasm patients undergoing neurosurgery. Regarding the safety of prophylaxis for VTE, UFH of chemoprophylaxis consistently demonstrated better safety efficacy, involving either major bleeding, minor bleeding, bleeding, or all-cause mortality.
