Abstract

• The Khorana score VTE risk assessment model has not been validated in patients with uterine cancer. • Patients with uterine cancer undergoing chemotherapy had a VTE rate of 6.5%. • Uterine cancer patients that had a VTE during treatment had a non-statistically significant higher average Khorana score. • A high Khorana score is a poor predictor of VTE in patients with uterine cancer undergoing chemotherapy.
