    <primary_outcome>
      <prim_outcome>Occurrence of pulmonary embolism in each venous thromboembolism prophylaxis method (including ASA, heparin and enoxaparin). Timepoint: 2 and 4 weeks after surgery. Method of measurement: Patients will be followed-up by the researcher. 2 and 4 weeks after surgery, patients will be re-evaluated with regards to any recent history of admission to hospital due to pulmonary embolism after the surgery. They will also be asked about the occurrence of symptoms such as acute unexplained dyspnea. A diagnosis of pulmonary embolism is definite when the patients presents any official hospital document with a confirmed diagnosis of pulmonary embolism or a when a combination of the mentioned symptoms and radiologic findings (such as a CT angiogram suggesting pulmonary embolism) are present.</prim_outcome>
      <prim_outcome>Occurrence of deep vein thrombosis in each venous thromboembolism prophylaxis method (including ASA, heparin and enoxaparin). Timepoint: 2 and 4 weeks after surgery. Method of measurement: Patients will be followed-up by the researcher. 2 and 4 weeks after surgery, patients will be re-evaluated with regards to any recent history of admission to hospital due to deep vein thrombosis after the surgery. They will also be asked about the occurrence of symptoms such as cramps, pain, erythema, swelling or tenderness in the posterior portion of their legs that has not resolved spontaneously or have worsened through time. A diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis is definite when the patients presents any official hospital document with a confirmed diagnosis of the condition or a when a combination of the mentioned symptoms and radiologic findings (such as a doppler ultrasonogram of the veins of lower extremities suggesting deep vein thrombosis) are present.</prim_outcome>
    </primary_outcome>
    <secondary_outcome>
      <sec_outcome>Gastrointestinal bleeding. Timepoint: 2 and 4 weeks aftrer surgery. Method of measurement: asking the patients about any history of melena, bloody stool or vomiting blood after surgery.</sec_outcome>
      <sec_outcome>Hemorrhagic stroke. Timepoint: 2 and 4 weeks after surgery. Method of measurement: asking the patients about any history of admission due to hemorrhagic stroke after surgery.</sec_outcome>
      <sec_outcome>Hemarthrosis. Timepoint: 2 and 4 weeks after surgery. Method of measurement: history, physical exam and radiographic findings consistent with hemarthrosis.</sec_outcome>
      <sec_outcome>Allergic reaction to the assigned medication. Timepoint: 2 and 4 weeks after surgery. Method of measurement: history and signs and symptoms consistent with allergic reaction to the medication used for venous thromboembolism prophylaxis.</sec_outcome>
