There remains low incidence of VTE following TKA in East Asians even without chemoprophylaxis. Although short-term fondaparinux protocol could reduce the incidence of overall DVT, its routine use seems debatable due to extremely rare proximal DVT and symptomatic PE and drug-related bleeding complication. However, modified and selective use of chemoprophylaxis would be considerable in high risk patients.
