About

After laparoscopic hysterectomy, authors aimed to determine cuff hematoma and a postoperative CRP value to help predict the other complications.

A total of 136 patients who underwent total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) were evaluated. CRP, White blood cell (WBC) and hemoglobin values (Hb) were measured on the 1st, 2nd and 7th days before and after the operation. Complications, pre-postoperative vaginal length and female sexual function were evaluated. Fourteen patients who developed cuff hematoma during postoperative follow-up were analyzed with the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve. ROC curves with the largest area under the curve for each inflammatory marker were compared in order to define the marker with higher diagnostic accuracy.

Enrollment: 106 patients

Sex: Female

Ages: 40 to 65 years old
