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

Table 4

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

	Resection of malignant neoplasm, upper limb
	OR	95% CI	value
DVT	6.3	0.06–165,667	0.532
PE	NEO	NEO	NEO
Infection	2.87	0.601–17.3	0.209
Readmission rate, 30 day	0.722	0.410–1.29	0.263
Reoperation rate, 30 day	3.07	0.672–18.0	0.172
Readmission rate, 90 day	0.593	0.357–0.992	0.045
Reoperation rate, 90 day	1.74	0.529–6.48	0.378

OR >1 indicates higher odds in the soft/connective tissue group. NEO = not enough observations.
