Abstract:

Objective: To assess the effects of previous abdominal surgery and obesity on the intra-operative and post-operative outcomes of total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH).

Method: In this retrospective cohort study, women who underwent TLH for benign conditions between January 2011 and December 2016 in tertiary academic center were included. Patients were grouped according to previous abdominal surgery. The study group consisted of patients who had at least one previous abdominal surgery and the control group consisted of patients with no previous abdominal surgery. In a further analysis, a subgroup of obese patients with BMI (body mass index) ≥30 kg/m2 was evaluated. For this analysis, the obese patients who underwent TLH were picked up and the results were compared to the results of obese patients who underwent total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH) during the same time period. The main outcome parameters were duration of hospital stay and major complication rate.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complication rate (time frame: Up to one week). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
