Summary

OBJECTIVE: In the study, investigators aimed to evaluate the urological complications of gynecologic operations in a tertiary academic center and to evaluate the treatment methods of these complications. METHODS: The files of all patients who underwent gynecological surgery between January 2016 and January 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. The age of patients with urological complications, American Anesthesia Society score, menopausal status, body mass index (BMI), preoperative hemoglobin level, postoperative hemoglobin level and hospitalization duration and number of previous surgeries were recorded. In addition, the patients with urological complications were evaluated in terms of the indications for surgery, type of surgery, type of urological complication and the way of treatment of the complication.

Detailed description

In women, the anatomical localization of urinary and genital tracts is very close to each other. This proximity can lead to injuries during pelvic operations. Advances in gynecologic operation techniques and the growing experience of gynecologists may suggest a decrease in urological injuries. However, according to the literature, gynecologists face approximately 0.2% to 1% urinary tract injuries during pelvic surgeries. The increase in the number of recurrent surgeries and adverse situations encountered during the operations such as adhesions and anatomical variations factor into the persistence of urologic complications. Investigators aimed to evaluate the urological complications of gynecologic operations in a tertiary academic center and to evaluate the treatment methods of these complications. The files of all patients who underwent gynecological surgery between January 2016 and January 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. The age of patients with urological complications, American Anesthesia Society score, menopausal status, body mass index (BMI), preoperative hemoglobin level, postoperative hemoglobin level and hospitalization duration and number of previous surgeries were recorded. In addition, the patients with urological complications were evaluated in terms of the indications for surgery, type of surgery, type of urological complication and the way of treatment of the complication.
