Complexity Theory for Public Administration and Policy

Abstract

If the diagnosis of MTS is delayed, the morbidity and mortality rates are significantly increased. Orthopedic surgeons should be aware of MTS as a risk factor for DVT after THA. Moreover, preoperative evaluation with duplex sonography or CT angiography to confirm MTS should be considered. In this regard, this study is considered to have sufficient clinical value for early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of MTS after THA.
