Abstract:[Objective] To analyze the risk factors for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the lower extremity before surgery for femoral neck fracture. [Methods] The databases, including China Biomedical Literature Database, CNKI, Wanfang, Pubmed and Embase, were searched to May 2024, and the literature that met the standards was extracted and analyzed by RevMan5.3 software. [Results] A total of 9 studies were included, all of which were case-control studies, involving 803 patients with DVT and 3 611 patients without DVT. As results of meta-analysis, the age (MD=1.98, 95%CI: 0.28~3.68, P=0.02), interval from injury to hospitalization >1 day (OR=1.70, 95%CI: 1.39~ 2.08, P<0.001), smoking history (OR=1.56, 95%CI: 1.18~2.05, P=0.002), history of hypertension (OR=1.21, 95%CI: 1.03~1.42, P=0.02), serum albumin<35 g/L (OR=1.69, 95%CI: 1.30~2.20, P<0.001), serum D-dimer ≥0.5 mg/L (OR=1.70, 95%CI: 1.03~2.78, P=0.04), ASA grade ≥ grade III. (OR=4.34, 95%CI: 1.42~13.26, P=0.01), whole blood platelet count ≥262×109 / L (OR=2.34, 95%CI: 1.78~3.08, P< 0.001) were risk factors for development of DVT in the lower extremity before surgery in patients with femoral neck fracture. [Conclusion] Age, time interval from injury to hospitalization >1 day, history of smoking, history of hypertension, serum albumin <35 g/L, serum D-dimer ≥0.5 mg/L, whole blood platelet count ≥ 262×109 /L, and ASA grade ≥ III are risk factors for preoperative lower extremity DVT in patients with femoral neck fracture, which should be given a high degree of attention to reduce the incidence of the incidence.
