Postoperative Complication and Reoperation Rates Following Resection of Soft Tissue vs. Bone Malignancies Based on Anatomic Location in the Inpatient Setting

Table 5

Odds of complications, readmissions, and reoperations following resection of malignant neoplasms from the lower limb.

	Resection of malignant neoplasm, lower limb
	OR	95% CI	value
DVT	1.98	0.737–6.42	0.21
PE	0.407	0.101–1.85	0.215
Infection	3.29	1.88–5.99	<0.0001
Readmission rate, 30 day	0.768	0.598–0.990	0.04
Reoperation rate, 30 day	8.74	3.86–23.7	<0.0001
Readmission rate, 90 day	0.738	0.577–0.944	0.015
Reoperation rate, 90 day	7.45	3.84–16.0	<0.0001

OR > 1 indicates higher odds in the soft/connective tissue group.
