Purpose: We aimed to describe the incidence and identify risk factors for the occurrence of short-term major posto-perative complications following colorectal resection for endometriosis. Methods: A cohort study using data from the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database from 2012–2020. We included patients with a primary diagnosis of endometriosis who underwent colon or rectal resections for endometriosis. Results: Of 755 women who underwent colorectal resection, 495 (65.6%) had laparoscopic surgery and 260 (34.4%) had open surgery. The major complication rate was 13.5% (n = 102). Women who underwent open surgery had a higher proportion of major complications (n = 53, 20.4% vs. n = 49, 9.9%, p < 0.001). In a multivariable regression analysis, Black race (aOR 95%CI 2.81 (1.60–4.92), p < 0.001), Hispanic ethnicity (aOR 95%CI 3.02 (1.42–6.43), p = 0.004), hypertension (aOR 95%CI 1.89 (1.08–3.30), p = 0.025), laparotomy (aOR 95%CI 1.64 (1.03–3.30), p = 0.025), concomitant enterotomy (aOR 95%CI 3.02 (1.26–7.21), p = 0.013), and hysterectomy (aOR 95%CI 2.59 (1.62–4.15), p < 0.001) were independently associated with major post-operative complications. In a subanalysis of laparoscopies only, Hispanic ethnicity, chronic hypertension, lysis of bowel adhesions, and hysterectomy were independently associated with major complications. In a subanalysis of laparotomies only, Black race and hysterectomy were independently positively associated with the occurrence of major complications. Conclusion: This study provides a current population-based estimate of short-term complications after surgery for colorectal endometriosis in the USA. The identified risk factors for complications can assist during preoperative shared decision-making and informed consent process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Uterine fibroids are the most common benign tumors that affect females. A laparoscopic myomectomy is the standard surgical treatment for most women who wish to retain their uterus. The most common complication of a myomectomy is excessive bleeding. However, risk factors for hemorrhage during a laparoscopic myomectomy are not well studied and no risk stratification tool specific for identifying the need for a blood transfusion during a laparoscopic myomectomy currently exists in the literature. This study aimed to identify risk factors for intraoperative and postoperative blood transfusion during laparoscopic myomectomies and to develop a risk stratification tool to determine the risk for requiring a blood transfusion. This was a retrospective cohort study of the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database from 2012 to 2020. Women who underwent a laparoscopic (conventional or robotic) myomectomy were included. Women who received 1 or more blood transfusions within 72 hours after the start time of a laparoscopic myomectomy were compared with those who did not require a blood transfusion. A multivariable analysis was performed to identify risk factors independently associated with the risk for transfusion. Two risk stratification tools to determine the need for a blood transfusion were developed based on the multivariable results, namely (1) based on preoperative factors and (2) based on preoperative and intraoperative factors. During the study period, 11,498 women underwent a laparoscopic myomectomy. Of these, 331(2.9%) required a transfusion. In a multivariable regression analysis of the preoperative factors, Black or African American and Asian races, Hispanic ethnicity, bleeding disorders, American Society of Anesthesiologists class III or IV classification, and a preoperative hematocrit value ≤35.0% were independently associated with the risk for transfusion. Identified intraoperative factors included specimen weight >250 g or ≥5 intramural myomas and an operation time of ≥197 minutes. A risk stratification tool was developed in which points are assigned based on the identified risk factors. The mean probability of transfusion can be calculated based on the sum of the points. We identified preoperative and intraoperative independent risk factors for a blood transfusion among women who underwent a laparoscopic myomectomy. A risk stratification tool to determine the risk for requiring a blood transfusion was developed based on the identified risk factors. Further studies are needed to validate this tool.

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol on patient experience after discharge from laparoscopic hysterectomy. Materials and Methods: Patients having laparoscopic hysterectomies by high-volume surgeons (>10 hysterectomies per year) at an urban tertiary-care hospital were divided into 2 cohorts: (1) a perioperative ERAS protocol adopted by the institution or (2) standard perioperative care according to the patient's surgeon. At the postoperative visit, each patient completed a validated questionnaire of self-reported recovery scores in domains of daily functional activities Results: There were 40 patients in the ERAS group and 44 in the standard perioperative care group, and 100% follow-up through the 2-week postoperative visits. Patients in both groups had similar rates of same-day discharges (88% versus 73%; p = 0.09). Both groups reported similar physical activity scores (1.38 versus 1.33; p = 0.79), days of first bowel movements (2.69 versus 2.71; p = 0.94), and days of opioid use after surgery (3.13 versus 2.64; p = 0.48). ERAS patients had fewer unplanned patient contacts than the standard care group (15% versus 50%; p < 0.01). There were no readmissions. Patients took few opioids, with 90% of all patients using <10 opioid tablets post surgery (5-mg oxycodone equivalents). Conclusions: Same-day discharge, patient-reported recovery experience, and opioid requirements did not differ between the ERAS protocol versus standard perioperative care. The ERAS protocol decreased unplanned patient contacts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Study Objective: Surgeons employ various methods for evaluating what is considered a common occurrence after gynecologic operations, postoperative urinary retention (POUR). Few have reported the incidence of POUR with a liberal voiding protocol (no requirement to void before discharge). The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the risk of POUR after benign gynecologic surgery, comparing a liberal voiding protocol with more strict voiding protocols. Secondary outcomes included length of hospital stay (LOS) and urinary tract infection (UTI).Design: Retrospective cohort study.Setting: Quaternary-care academic hospital in the United States.Patients: Patients undergoing hysterectomy or myomectomy at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center from August 2017 through July 2018 (n = 652). Cases involving incontinence operations, correction of pelvic organ prolapse, malignancy, or peripartum hysterectomy were excluded.Interventions: Hysterectomy, myomectomy.Measurements and Main Results: POUR, defined as the need for recatheterization within 24 hours of catheter removal, along with UTI and LOS were compared between liberal and strict voiding protocols. A subgroup analysis was performed for those undergoing minimally invasive surgery (MIS). A total of 303 (46.5%) women underwent surgery with a liberal postoperative voiding protocol and 349 (53.5%) women with a strict voiding protocol. Overall, the incidence of POUR was low at 3.8% and not different between the groups (2.6% liberal vs. 4.9% strict, p = .14). UTIs also occurred infrequently (2.8% overall, 2.6% liberal vs. 2.9% strict, p = .86). Similar results were seen specifically among those who underwent MIS: POUR (3.7% overall, 2.8% liberal vs. 5.3% strict, p = .17) and UTI (3.3% overall, 2.4% liberal vs. 4.7% strict, p = .28). The median LOS (interquartile range) was much shorter for MIS patients with a liberal voiding protocol (median 15 hours overall [interquartile range 15 hours], 9 [4] hours liberal vs. 36 [34] hours strict, p <.01). Among those discharged the same day (72.6% of the MIS cases), patients with a liberal voiding protocol had a significantly shorter LOS than those with strict (mean [standard deviation] 9.4 [2.5] hours vs. 10.6 [35] hours, p <.01). Postoperative complications occurred less frequently in those with MIS procedures (11.8% in MIS vs. 20.2% in laparotomies, p <.01) and those with liberal voiding protocols (11.2% liberal vs. 16.9% strict p = .04).Conclusion: Overall, POUR occurs infrequently after major benign gynecologic surgery and does not differ between those with liberal and strict voiding protocols. Our data suggest that same-day discharge after MIS hysterectomy and myomectomy without a requirement to void does not increase the risk of POUR and shortens LOS. Eliminating voiding protocols after these procedures may facilitate greater efficiency in the postanesthesia recovery unit and may contribute to enhanced recovery after surgery protocols.

- Abstract
Study Objective: To evaluate if peritoneal washings of the abdominopelvic cavity during laparoscopic myomectomy can detect leiomyoma cells after power morcellation.Design: Prospective cohort pilot study.Setting: University of North Carolina Hospitals, an academic, tertiary referral center (Canadian Task Force classification II-2).Patients: Patients undergoing laparoscopic or robotic myomectomy for suspected benign leiomyoma by members of the Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery division between September 2014 and January 2015.Intervention: Washings of the peritoneal cavity were collected at 3 times during surgery: the beginning of the procedure once the peritoneal cavity was accessed laparoscopically, after the myoma was excised and myometrial incision closed, and after uncontained power morcellation.Measurements and Main Results: Twenty patients were included in the analysis. The median morcellation time was 16 minutes (range, 2-36). The median specimen weight was 283.5 g (range, 13-935). Cytologic evaluation (ThinPrep with Papanicolaou staining) did not detect any smooth muscle cells. Cell block histology, however, detected spindle cells in 6 postmorcellation samples. Three of these 6 cases also had spindle cells detected on the postmyomectomy closure samples. When performed on the postmorcellation samples, desmin and smooth muscle actin immunostaining were positive, confirming the presence of smooth muscle cells.Conclusion: Cell block histology, but not cytology, can detect leiomyoma cells in peritoneal washings after power morcellation. With myomectomy, there is some tissue disruption that seems to cause cell spread even in the absence of morcellation. Further protocol testing might allow peritoneal washings to be used in assessing containment techniques and testing comparative safety of different morcellation methods.
