High MIH case volume may up risk for adverse events in women with large uteri

“In the context of high-complexity cases, such as those for large uteri, many factors beyond surgical volume influence perioperative adverse events,” Dr. Bretschneider said, concluding that, to improve patient safety and outcomes, additional studies should be performed to explore the relationship between surgeon experience and patient factors on perioperative outcomes in the setting of common gynecologic procedures.

Dr. Bretschneider reported having no relevant disclosures.
