Risk Factors for Surgical Wound Infection and Fascial Dehiscence After Open Gynecologic Oncologic Surgery: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Our study supports the importance of duration of surgery in predicting SSI and FD in patients with gynecological cancer. This correlation between operation time and wound complications depends on whether bowel surgery was performed. Additionally, the relevance of obesity as a risk factor is higher in younger than in older patients.
