Sexual health of <scp>LGBTQ</scp> + patients undergoing colorectal surgery for benign disease and their experience with healthcare: A scoping review
Colorectal surgery for benign disease affects LGBTQ+ patients' sexual health. Literature is scarce, with limited data stratification for sexual orientation or gender identity. Healthcare providers need to be educated about LGBTQ+ needs relating to sexual health and surgery, and inclusive clinical guidelines should be developed.
