in the winter (Spring: 7.72 6 3.64 vs Summer: 7.50 6 3.68 vs Fall: 7.48 6 3.83 vs Winter 71.6 6 3.60; P < .001).Similarly, the mean PRO score improvement was found to be the greatest in the summer and the least in the winter (Spring: 8.96 6 8.04 vs Summer: 9.48 6 7.87 vs Fall: 9.36 6 7.85 vs Winter: 8.86 6 8.24; P < .001).Conclusions: The mean VCSS score improvement, as well as the mean PRO score improvement, were both found to be the greatest in the spring and summer seasons and the lowest in the winter season, despite the most procedures being performed in the winter.Seasonal variation in outcomes should be considered when discussing surgical planning with the patients.Further investigation into the factors contributing to this seasonal variation is warranted.
