Comparative Analysis of 30-Day Complications in Transgender Men Undergoing Different Routes of Hysterectomy: A Study Utilizing American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) Data
This study provides important insights into the 30-day postoperative outcomes of different hysterectomy approaches in transgender men. LH appears to have the lowest incidence of complications, whereas LAVH and AH present higher risks for specific complications. These findings can aid in informed decision-making and surgical planning, ultimately improving care for transgender men undergoing hysterectomy.
