RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Since malignancy during pregnancy is uncommon, information regarding contraception selection or sterilization at delivery is limited. The objective of this study was to examine the type of long-acting reversible contraception or surgical sterilization procedure chosen by pregnant patients with malignancy at delivery. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This cross-sectional study queried the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project's National Inpatient Sample in the USA. The study population was vaginal and cesarean deliveries in a hospital setting from January 2017 to December 2020. Pregnant patients with breast cancer (n = 1605), leukemia (n = 1190), lymphoma (n = 1120), thyroid cancer (n = 715), cervical cancer (n = 425) and melanoma (n = 400) were compared with 14 265 319 pregnant patients without malignancy. The main outcome measures were utilization of long-acting reversible contraception (subdermal implant or intrauterine device) and performance of permanent surgical sterilization (bilateral tubal ligation or bilateral salpingectomy) during the index hospital admission for delivery, assessed with a multinomial regression model controlling for clinical, pregnancy and delivery characteristics. RESULTS: When compared with pregnant patients without malignancy, pregnant patients with breast cancer were more likely to proceed with bilateral salpingectomy (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.30) or intrauterine device (aOR 1.91); none received the subdermal implant. Pregnant patients with leukemia were more likely to choose a subdermal implant (aOR 2.22), whereas those with lymphoma were more likely to proceed with bilateral salpingectomy (aOR 1.93) and bilateral tubal ligation (aOR 1.76). Pregnant patients with thyroid cancer were more likely to proceed with bilateral tubal ligation (aOR 2.21) and none received the subdermal implant. No patients in the cervical cancer group selected long-acting reversible contraception, and they were more likely to proceed with bilateral salpingectomy (aOR 2.08). None in the melanoma group chose long-acting reversible contraception. Among pregnant patients aged <30, the odds of proceeding with bilateral salpingectomy were increased in patients with breast cancer (aOR 3.01), cervical cancer (aOR 2.26) or lymphoma (aOR 2.08). The odds of proceeding with bilateral tubal ligation in pregnant patients aged <30 with melanoma (aOR 5.36) was also increased. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this nationwide assessment in the United States suggest that among pregnant patients with malignancy, the preferred contraceptive option or method of sterilization at time of hospital delivery differs by malignancy type.

PURPOSE: To examine feto-maternal characteristics and outcomes of morbidly obese pregnant patients who conceived with assisted reproductive technology (ART). METHODS: This cross-sectional study queried the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project's National Inpatient Sample. Study population was 48,365 patients with ART pregnancy from January 2012 to September 2015, including non-obesity (n = 45,125, 93.3%), class I-II obesity (n = 2445, 5.1%), and class III obesity (n = 795, 1.6%). Severe maternal morbidity at delivery per the Centers for Disease and Control Prevention definition was assessed with multivariable binary logistic regression model. RESULTS: Patients in the class III obesity group were more likely to have a hypertensive disorder (adjusted-odds ratio (aOR) 3.03, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.61-3.52), diabetes mellitus (aOR 3.08, 95%CI 2.64-3.60), large for gestational age neonate (aOR 3.57, 95%CI 2.77-4.60), and intrauterine fetal demise (aOR 2.03, 95%CI 1.05-3.94) compared to those in the non-obesity group. Increased risks of hypertensive disease (aOR 1.35, 95%CI 1.14-1.60) and diabetes mellitus (aOR 1.39, 95%CI 1.17-1.66) in the class III obesity group remained robust even compared to the class I-II obesity group. After controlling for priori selected clinical, pregnancy, and delivery factors, patients with class III obesity were 70% more likely to have severe maternal morbidity at delivery compared to non-obese patients (8.2% vs 4.4%, aOR 1.70, 95%CI 1.30-2.22) whereas those with class I-II obesity were not (4.1% vs 4.4%, aOR 0.87, 95%CI 0.70-1.08). CONCLUSIONS: The results of this national-level analysis in the United States suggested that morbidly obese pregnant patients conceived with ART have increased risks of adverse fetal and maternal outcomes.

PURPOSE: To examine the utilization and characteristics related to the use of hysteroscopy at the time of endometrial evaluation for endometrial hyperplasia in the outpatient surgery setting. METHODS: This cross-sectional study queried the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project's Nationwide Ambulatory Surgery Sample. The study population was 3218 patients with endometrial hyperplasia who underwent endometrial evaluation from January 2016 to December 2019. Performance and clinical characteristics of hysteroscopic endometrial evaluation were assessed with multivariable binary logistic regression models. RESULTS: A total of 2654 (82.5%) patients had hysteroscopic endometrial tissue evaluation. Patients with postmenopausal bleeding, heavy menstrual bleeding, and polycystic ovary syndrome were more likely to undergo hysteroscopic endometrial evaluation in multivariable analysis (all, adjusted-P < 0.001). Uterine injury occurred in 4.9 per 1000 hysteroscopic endometrial evaluations; none had uterine injury in the non-hysteroscopy cohort. Among the 2654 patients who had hysteroscopic endometrial evaluation, 106 (4.0%) patients had intrauterine device insertion at surgery, and the utilization increased from 2.9 to 5.8% during the study period (P-trend < 0.001). Younger age, more recent year surgery, and obesity were independently associated with increased utilization of intrauterine device insertion at hysteroscopic endometrial evaluation (all, adjusted-P < 0.05). Among 2023 reproductive-age patients with endometrial hyperplasia, 1666 (82.4%) patients underwent hysteroscopic endometrial evaluation. On multivariable analysis, patients with heavy menstrual bleeding were more likely to have hysteroscopic endometrial evaluation (adjusted-P < 0.05). Intrauterine device insertion increased from 3.7% in 2016 to 8.0% in 2019 (P-trend = 0.007). CONCLUSION: This nationwide analysis suggests that the insertion of intrauterine devices at the time of hysteroscopic endometrial tissue evaluation for endometrial hyperplasia is increasing among reproductive-age population.

OBJECTIVE: To perform a cost-effectiveness analysis to examine the utility and effectiveness of OS performed at the time of elective cholecystectomy [laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LAP-CHOL)]. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: OS has been adopted as a strategy to reduce the risk of ovarian cancer in women undergoing hysterectomy and tubal sterilization, although the procedure is rarely performed as a risk reducing strategy during other abdominopelvic procedures. METHODS: A decision model was created to examine women 40, 50, and 60 years of age undergoing LAP-CHOL with or without OS. The lifetime risk of ovarian cancer was assumed to be 1.17%, 1.09%, and 0.92% for women age 40, 50, and 60 years, respectively. OS was estimated to provide a 65% reduction in the risk of ovarian cancer and to require 30 additional minutes of operative time. We estimated the cost, quality-adjusted life-years, ovarian cancer cases and deaths prevented with OS. RESULTS: The additional cost of OS at LAP-CHOL ranged from $1898 to 1978. In a cohort of 5000 women, OS reduced the number of ovarian cancer cases by 39, 36, and 30 cases and deaths by 12, 14, and 16 in the age 40-, 50-, and 60-year-old cohorts, respectively. OS during LAP-CHOL was cost-effective, with incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of $11,162 to 26,463 in the 3 age models. In a probabilistic sensitivity analysis, incremental cost-effectiveness ratio for OS were less than $100,000 per quality-adjusted life-years in 90.5% or more of 1000 simulations. CONCLUSIONS: OS at the time of LAP-CHOL may be a cost-effective strategy to prevent ovarian cancer among average risk women.

OBJECTIVE: Failure-to-rescue, defined as mortality following a perioperative complication, is a perioperative quality indicator studied in various surgeries, but not in vulvar cancer surgery. The objective of this study was to assess failure-to-rescue in patients undergoing surgical therapy for vulvar cancer. METHODS: This cross-section study queried the National Inpatient Sample. The study population was 31,077 patients who had surgical therapy for vulvar cancer from 1/2001-9/2015. The main outcomes were (i) perioperative morbidity (29 indicators) and (ii) mortality following a perioperative complication during the index admission for vulvar surgery (failure-to-rescue), assessed with a multivariable binary logistic regression model. RESULTS: The cohort-level median age was 69 years, and 14,337 (46.1%) had medical comorbidity. Perioperative complications were reported in 4736 (15.2%) patients during the hospital admission for vulvar surgery. In multivariable analysis, patient factors including older age, medical comorbidity, and morbid obesity, and treatment factors with prior radiotherapy and radical vulvectomy were associated with perioperative complications (P < 0.05). The number of patients with morbid obesity, higher comorbidity index, and prior radiotherapy increased over time (P-trends < 0.001). Among 4736 patients who developed perioperative complications, 55 patients died during the hospital admission for vulvar surgery (failure-to-rescue rate, 1.2%). In multivariable analysis, cardiac arrest (adjusted-odds ratio [aOR] 27.25), sepsis or systemic inflammatory response syndrome (aOR 11.54), pneumonia (aOR 6.03), shock (aOR 4.37), and respiratory failure (aOR 3.10) were associated with failure-to-rescue (high-risk morbidities). There was an increasing trend of high-risk morbidities from 2.0% to 3.7% over time, but the failure-to-rescue from high-risk morbidities decreased from 9.1% to 2.8% (P-trend < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Vulvar cancer patients undergoing surgical treatment had increased comorbidity over time with an increase in high-risk complications. However, failure-to-rescue rate has decreased significantly.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Given the possibility of occult endometrial cancer where nodal status confers important prognostic and therapeutic data, role of lymph node evaluation at hysterectomy for endometrial hyperplasia is currently under active investigation. The objective of the current study was to examine the characteristics related to lymph node evaluation at the time of minimally invasive hysterectomy when performed for endometrial hyperplasia in an ambulatory surgery setting. METHODS: The Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project's Nationwide Ambulatory Surgery Sample was retrospectively queried to examine 49,698 patients with endometrial hyperplasia who underwent minimally invasive hysterectomy from 1/2016 to 12/2019. A multivariable binary logistic regression model was fitted to assess the characteristics related to lymph node evaluation at hysterectomy and a classification tree model with recursive partitioning analysis was constructed to examine the utilization pattern of lymph node evaluation. RESULTS: Lymph node evaluation was performed in 2847 (5.7%) patients. In a multivariable analysis, (i) patient factors with older age, obesity, high census-level household income, and large fringe metropolitan, (ii) surgical factors with total laparoscopic hysterectomy and recent year surgery, (iii) hospital parameters with large bed capacity, urban setting, and Western U.S. region, and (iv) histology factor with presence of atypia were independently associated with increased utilization of lymph node evaluation at hysterectomy (all, P < 0.05). Among those independent factors, presence of atypia exhibited the largest association for lymph node evaluation (adjusted odds ratio 3.75, 95% confidence interval 3.39-4.16). There were 20 unique patterns of lymph node evaluation based on histology, hysterectomy type, patient age, year of surgery, and hospital bed capacity, ranging from 0 to 20.3% (absolute rate difference, 20.3%). CONCLUSION: Lymph node evaluation at the time of minimally invasive hysterectomy for endometrial hyperplasia in the ambulatory surgery setting appears to be evolving with large variability based on histology type, hysterectomy modality, patient factors, and hospital parameters, warranting a consideration of developing clinical practice guidelines.

INTRODUCTION: This study examined obstetric outcomes in patients diagnosed with uterine adenomyosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This historical cohort study queried the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project's National Inpatient Sample. The study population was all hospital deliveries in women aged 15-54 years between January 2016 and December 2019. The exposure was a diagnosis of uterine adenomyosis. The main outcome measures were obstetric characteristics, including placenta previa, placenta accreta spectrum, and placental abruption. Secondary outcomes were delivery complications including severe maternal morbidity. Analytic steps to assess these outcomes included (i) a 1-to-N propensity score matching to mitigate and balance prepregnancy confounders to assess obstetric characteristics, followed by (ii) an adjusting model with preselected pregnancy and delivery factors to assess maternal morbidity. Sensitivity analyses were also performed with restricted cohorts to account for prior uterine scar, uterine myoma, and extra-uterine endometriosis. RESULTS: After propensity score matching, 5430 patients with adenomyosis were compared to 21 720 patients without adenomyosis. Adenomyosis was associated with an increased odds of placenta accreta spectrum (adjusted-odds ratio [aOR] 3.07, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.01-4.70), placenta abruption (aOR 3.21, 95% CI: 2.60-3.98), and placenta previa (aOR 5.08, 95% CI: 4.25-6.06). Delivery at <32 weeks of gestation (aOR 1.48, 95% CI: 1.24-1.77) and cesarean delivery (aOR 7.72, 95% CI: 7.04-8.47) were both increased in women with adenomyosis. Patients in the adenomyosis group were more likely to experience severe maternal morbidity at delivery compared to those in the nonadenomyosis group (aOR 1.86, 95% CI: 1.59-2.16). Results remained robust in the aforementioned several sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSIONS: This national-level analysis suggests that a diagnosis of uterine adenomyosis is associated with an increased risk of placental pathology (placenta accreta spectrum, placenta abruption, and placental previa) and adverse maternal outcomes at delivery.

PURPOSE: To examine patient and hospital characteristics related to seasonal fluctuation in in vitro fertilization (IVF). METHODS: This retrospective cohort study examined 33,077 oocyte retrievals identified in the National Ambulatory Surgery Sample. Exposure assignment was monthly IVF encounters: low-volume months (<25%ile), mid-volume months (≥25/<75%ile), and high-volume months (>75%ile). Main outcomes were patient and hospital characteristics related to the exposure groups, assessed with a multinomial regression model. RESULTS: The median IVF encounters were 977 per month, ranging from 657 to 1074 (absolute-difference 417). January, July, and December were the lowest-quartile volume months, ranging from 657 to 710 encounters per month (low-volume months). May, August, and November were the top-quartile volume months, ranging from 1049 to 1074 encounters per month (high-volume months). In a multivariable analysis, patients undergoing IVF in the low-volume months were younger and less likely to have infertility or comorbidities. Patients undergoing IVF in the high-volume months were more likely to have lower household income and receive IVF at urban teaching facilities. Northeastern residents were less likely to have IVF in the low-volume months but more likely to have IVF in the high-volume months. Sensitivity analyses showed that the lowest-to-highest variability in monthly IVF encounters was higher in Northeast region compared to other regions (320 vs 50-128); infertility patients compared to those without (317 vs 190); privately insured patients compared to self-pay (227 vs 156); and older patients compared to younger (234 vs 192). CONCLUSION: This study suggests substantial seasonal fluctuation in IVF oocyte retrieval in the USA based on patient and hospital factors.

BACKGROUND: Although ovarian conservation at hysterectomy for benign gynecologic disease has demonstrated mortality benefit in young patients and this benefit may be sustained up to age 65 years, there is a scarcity of data regarding ovarian conservation in those with a diagnosis of endometrial hyperplasia, a premalignant uterine condition. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to examine patient, hospital, treatment, and histology characteristics related to ovarian conservation at the time of inpatient hysterectomy for endometrial hyperplasia. STUDY DESIGN: The Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project's National Inpatient Sample was retrospectively queried to examine patients aged ≤65 years with endometrial hyperplasia who had inpatient hysterectomy from January 2016 to December 2019. The exclusion criteria included concurrent gynecologic malignancy, adnexal pathology, and lymphadenectomy. Cases were grouped by adnexal surgery status (ovarian conservation or oophorectomy). A multivariable binary logistic regression model was used to identify independent characteristics for ovarian conservation. A classification tree was constructed with recursive partitioning analysis to examine utilization patterns of ovarian conservation. RESULTS: Overall, 3105 patients (31.1%) underwent ovarian conservation at hysterectomy among 9975 patients. The utilization of ovarian conservation decreased gradually until age 45 years and then markedly decreased by age 52 years (63.3%-15.3%; P<.001). In a multivariable analysis, younger age, non-White, urban nonteaching centers, and vaginal hysterectomy were associated with increased utilization of ovarian conservation, whereas endometrial hyperplasia with atypia, obesity, comorbidity, large bed capacity centers, and Midwest and South regions were associated with decreased utilization of ovarian conservation (all, P<.05). A classification tree identified 17 utilization patterns for ovarian conservation, ranging from 7.8% to 100.0% (absolute rate difference, 92.2%). CONCLUSION: The utilization of ovarian conservation at the time of inpatient hysterectomy in patients undergoing surgical management for endometrial hyperplasia started decreasing in their mid-40s and seemed to occur earlier than in benign hysterectomy. There was substantial variability in ovarian conservation at the time of hysterectomy for endometrial hyperplasia based on patient, hospital, surgical, and histology factors, suggesting the possible benefit of clinical practice guidelines for ovarian conservation in this population.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: This study examined the utilization and characteristics of lymph node evaluation at hysterectomy for carcinoma in situ of the uterine cervix. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study queried the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project's National Inpatient Sample, evaluating 7395 patients with cervical carcinoma in situ who underwent hysterectomy from 2016 to 2019. A multivariable binary logistic regression model was fitted to identify independent characteristics related to lymph node evaluation. A classification-tree was constructed with recursive partitioning analysis to examine utilization patterns of lymph node evaluation. RESULTS: Lymph node evaluation at hysterectomy was performed in 4.6%. In amultivariable analysis, older age, higher income, use of robotic-assisted hysterectomy, and surgery at large bed capacity or urban teaching centers in the northeast US region were associated with increased likelihood of lymph node evaluation (all, p < 0.05). Of those independent factors, robotic-assisted surgery exhibited the largest effect size (adjusted odds ratio 3.23, 95% confidence interval 2.54-4.10). Utilization pattern analysis identified nine unique characteristics, of which robotic-assisted surgery was the primary indicator for cohort allocation (12.4% vs. 3.2%, p < 0.001). The difference between the lowest-highest patterns was 33.3% (range, 0%-33.3%). CONCLUSION: Lymph node evaluation was rarely performed for cervical carcinoma in situ overall and robotic surgery was associated with increased utilization of lymph node evaluation.

PURPOSE: To examine trends, characteristics, and outcomes of women with placenta percreta who had conservative management at cesarean delivery (CD) without hysterectomy. METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort study querying the National Inpatient Sample. The Study population was comprised of women with diagnosis of placenta percreta who underwent CD from 10/2015-12/2018. Characteristics and surgical outcome of women who had hysterectomy at time of CD were compared to those who did not (conservative management) in multivariable analysis. RESULTS: A total of 1055 cases were examined, of which 790 (74.9%) received hysterectomy at CD and the remaining 265 (25.1%) had conservative management without hysterectomy. During the study period, performance of hysterectomy at CD increased from 71.4% to 93.8% (P < 0.001). In multivariable analysis, more recent cases of CD for placenta percreta were less likely to have conservative management [adjusted-odds ratio (aOR) per year-quarter 0.93, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.89-0.97]. In contrast, hospitals with small-medium bed capacity (aOR 1.72, 95% CI 1.18-2.51), non-urban teaching setting (aOR 1.76, 95% CI 1.14-2.70), and located in the Midwest (aOR 2.55, 95% CI 1.56-4.17) were more likely to offer conservative management at CD. Later gestational age was also associated with a higher likelihood of conservative management (median gestational age, 36 versus 34 weeks, P < 0.001). Women in the conservative management group experienced lower measured surgical morbidity during the admission compared to those in the cesarean hysterectomy group (47.2% versus 75.9%, aOR 0.35, 95% CI 0.26-0.48). CONCLUSION: The clinical practice for placenta percreta appears to be shifting to upfront hysterectomy at the time of CD.

OBJECTIVE: To study the impact of body habitus on risk of complications resulting from ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in hospitalized patients. METHODS: This is a retrospective observational study examining the National Inpatient Sample between January 2012 and September 2015. Patients were women < 50 years of age diagnosed with OHSS, classified as non-obese, class I-II obesity, or class III obesity. Intervention included multinomial logistic regression to identify factors associated with obesity and binary logistic regression for independent risk factors for complications. Main outcome measures were incidence of (i) any or (ii) multiple complication(s). RESULTS: Of 2745 women hospitalized with OHSS, 2440 (88.9%) were non-obese, 155 (5.6%) had class I-II obesity, and 150 (5.5%) had class III obesity. Obese women (either class I-II or III) had a higher degree of comorbidity, had lower incomes, and were less likely to have private insurance than non-obese women (all P < 0.001). Obese women had lower rates of OHSS-related complications than non-obese women (any complication: non-obese 65.2%, class I-II 54.8%, and class III 46.7%, P < 0.001; and multiple complications: non-obese 38.5%, class I-II 32.3%, and class III 20.0%, P < 0.001). In the multivariable model, obesity remained independently associated with a decreased risk of complications (class I-II odds ratio 0.57, 95% confidence interval 0.39-0.83, P = 0.003; class III odds ratio 0.30, 95% confidence interval 0.20-0.44, P < 0.001). Obese women were also less likely to require paracentesis (non-obese 32.8%, class I-II 9.7%, and class III 13.3%, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that obesity is associated with decreased OHSS-related complication rates in hospitalized patients.

OBJECTIVE: To examine the influence of the first level I evidence (Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer [LACC] trial) on minimally invasive hysterectomy use and perioperative complications for cervical cancer surgery. METHODS: This was population-based retrospective observational study, querying National Inpatient Sample. Women with cervical cancer who underwent hysterectomy and lymphadenectomy from 10/2015-12/2018 were examined. A quasi-experimental analysis with interrupted-time series was performed to assess the influence of the LACC trial report on minimally invasive hysterectomy use and perioperative complication rates. RESULTS: 5120 women in the pre-LACC period and 1645 women in the post-LACC period were compared. Following the LACC trial report on 3/2018, the minimally invasive hysterectomy use dropped by 19.7 percent points in one month (55.2% in 3/2018 to 35.5% in 4/2018), followed by a continued decline of 8.0% (95% confidence interval 0.1-15.3) monthly. By 12/2018, minimally invasive hysterectomy was used in 17.9% of cases, which was 38.8 percent points lower than the expected rate per the pre-LACC period projection. In multivariable analysis, women in the post-LACC period were 63% less likely to undergo minimally invasive hysterectomy (adjusted-odds ratio 0.37, 95% confidence interval 0.33-0.42) but 23% more likely to have a perioperative complication (38.6% versus 29.1%, adjusted-odds ratio 1.23, 95% confidence interval 1.08-1.40) compared to those in the pre-LACC period. Women in the post-LACC group were more likely to have a longer hospital stay compared to those in the pre-LACC group (median, 3 versus 2 days, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Following the LACC trial results, U.S. surgeons rapidly shifted from minimally invasive to open hysterectomy for cervical cancer. Decreasing utilization of minimally invasive surgery was associated with an increase in perioperative complications and longer hospital admissions.

OBJECTIVE: To examine characteristics and short-term perioperative outcomes related to minimally invasive pelvic exenteration for gynecologic malignancy. METHODS: This comparative effectiveness study is a retrospective population-based analysis of the National Inpatient Sample from 10/2008-9/2015. Women with cervical, uterine, vaginal, and vulvar malignancies who underwent pelvic exenteration were evaluated based on the use of laparoscopic or robotic-assisted surgery. Patient demographics and intraoperative/postoperative complications related to a minimally invasive surgical approach were assessed. RESULTS: Among 1376 women who underwent pelvic exenteration, 49 (3.6%) had the procedure performed via a minimally invasive approach. The majority of minimally invasive cases were robotic-assisted (51.0%). Women in the minimally invasive group were more likely to be old, white, have cervical/uterine cancers, and receive urinary diversion, but less frequently received vaginal reconstruction or colostomy when compared to those in the open surgery group (P < 0.05). Overall perioperative complication rates were similar between the minimally invasive and open surgery groups (79.6% versus 77.7%, P = 0.862), but the minimally invasive group had a decreased risk of high-risk complications compared to the open surgery group (adjusted-odds ratio 0.19, 95% confidence interval 0.07-0.51). Specifically, a minimally invasive approach was associated with decreased incidence of sepsis and thromboembolism compared to an open approach (P < 0.05). The minimally invasive group had a shorter length of stay (median, 9 versus 14 days) and lower total charge (median, $127,875 versus $208,591) compared to the open surgery group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Laparotomy remains the main surgical approach for pelvic exenteration for gynecologic malignancy and minimally invasive surgery was infrequently utilized during the study period in the United States. Before widely adopting this surgical approach, the utility and role of minimally invasive pelvic exenteration requires further investigation.

In 2020, endometrial cancer continues to be the most common gynecologic malignancy in the United States. The majority of endometrial cancer is low grade, and nearly 1 of every 8 low-grade endometrial cancer diagnoses occurs in women younger than 50 years with early-stage disease. The incidence of early-stage, low-grade endometrial cancer is increasing particularly among women in their 30s. Women with early-stage, low-grade endometrial cancer generally have a favorable prognosis, and hysterectomy-based surgical treatment alone can often be curative. In young women with endometrial cancer, consideration of ovarian conservation is especially relevant to avoid both the short-term and long-term sequelae of surgical menopause including menopausal symptoms, cardiovascular disease, metabolic disease, and osteoporosis. Although disadvantages of ovarian conservation include failure to remove ovarian micrometastasis (0.4%-0.8%), gross ovarian metastatic disease (4.2%), or synchronous ovarian cancer (3%-5%) at the time of surgery and the risk of future potential metachronous ovarian cancer (1.2%), ovarian conservation is not negatively associated with endometrial cancer-related or all-cause mortality in young women with early-stage, low-grade endometrial cancer. Despite this, utilization of ovarian conservation for young women with early-stage, low-grade endometrial cancer remains modest with only a gradual increase in uptake in the United States. We propose a framework and strategic approach to identify young women with early-stage, low-grade endometrial cancer who may be candidates for ovarian conservation. This evidence-based schema consists of a 2-step assessment at both the preoperative and intraoperative stages that can be universally integrated into practice.

BACKGROUND: Although an infrequent occurrence, the placenta can adhere abnormally to the gravid uterus leading to significantly high maternal morbidity and mortality during cesarean delivery. Contemporary national statistics related to a morbidly adherent placenta, referred to as placenta accreta spectrum, are needed. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to examine national trends, characteristics, and perioperative outcomes of women who underwent cesarean delivery for placenta accreta spectrum in the United States. STUDY DESIGN: This is a population-based retrospective, observational study querying the National Inpatient Sample. The study cohort included women who underwent cesarean delivery from October 2015 to December 2017 and had a diagnosis of placenta accreta spectrum. The main outcome measures were patient characteristics and surgical outcomes related to placenta accreta spectrum assessed by the generalized estimating equation on multivariable analysis. The temporal trend of placenta accreta spectrum was also assessed by linear segmented regression with log transformation. RESULTS: Of 2,727,477 cases who underwent cesarean delivery during the study period, 8030 (0.29%) had the diagnosis of placenta accreta spectrum. Placenta accreta was the most common diagnosis (n=6205, 0.23%), followed by percreta (n=1060, 0.04%) and increta (n=765, 0.03%). The number of placenta accreta spectrum cases increased by 2.1% every quarter year from 0.27% to 0.32% (P=.004). On multivariable analysis, (1) patient demographics (older age, tobacco use, recent diagnosis, higher comorbidity, and use of assisted reproductive technology), (2) pregnancy characteristics (placenta previa, previous cesarean delivery, breech presentation, and grand multiparity), and (3) hospital factors (urban teaching center and large bed capacity hospital) represented the independent characteristics related to placenta accreta spectrum (all, P<.05). The median gestational age at cesarean delivery was 36 weeks for placenta accreta and 34 weeks for both placenta increta and percreta vs 39 weeks for non-placenta accreta spectrum cases (P<.001). On multivariable analysis, cesarean delivery complicated by placenta accreta spectrum was associated with increased risk of any surgical morbidities (78.3% vs 10.6%), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-defined severe maternal morbidity (60.3% vs 3.1%), hemorrhage (54.1% vs 3.9%), coagulopathy (5.3% vs 0.3%), shock (5.0% vs 0.1%), urinary tract injury (8.3% vs 0.2%), and death (0.25% vs 0.01%) compared with cesarean delivery without placenta accreta spectrum. When further analyzed by subtype, cesarean delivery for placenta increta and percreta was associated with higher likelihood of hysterectomy (0.4% for non-placenta accreta spectrum, 45.8% for accreta, 82.4% for increta, 78.3% for percreta; P<.001) and urinary tract injury (0.2% for non-placenta accreta spectrum, 5.2% for accreta, 11.8% for increta, 24.5% for percreta; P<.001). Moreover, women in the placenta increta and percreta groups had markedly increased risks of surgical mortality compared with those without placenta accreta spectrum (increta, odds ratio, 19.9; and percreta, odds ratio, 32.1). CONCLUSION: Patient characteristics and outcomes differ across the placenta accreta spectrum subtypes, and women with placenta increta and percreta have considerably high surgical morbidity and mortality risks. Notably, 1 in 313 women undergoing cesarean delivery had a diagnosis of placenta accreta spectrum by the end of 2017, and the incidence seems to be higher than reported in previous studies.

BACKGROUND: Opportunistic salpingectomy is now recommended at the time of routine gynecologic surgery to reduce the risk of future ovarian cancer, and performance of opportunistic salpingectomy has increased markedly at the time of benign hysterectomy. Salpingectomy has also been suggested to be feasible at the time of cesarean delivery in women desiring sterilization; however, uptake has not been previously studied on a national level. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to examine recent population trends in the utilization and characteristics of salpingectomy at the time of cesarean delivery in the United States. STUDY DESIGN: This is a population-based retrospective observational study querying the National Inpatient Sample between October 2015 and December 2018. The primary outcome measure was the temporal trend of bilateral salpingectomy at cesarean delivery, assessed with linear segmented regression with log transformation utilizing 3-month time increments. The secondary outcome measures included patient characteristics associated with bilateral salpingectomy, assessed with a multinomial regression model, and surgical outcome (hemorrhage, blood transfusion, hysterectomy, and oophorectomy) at the time of bilateral salpingectomy vs bilateral tubal ligation, assessed with generalized estimating equation in a propensity score-matched model. RESULTS: There were 3,813,823 women at the age of 15 to 49 years who had cesarean deliveries included, of whom 397,260 (10.4%) had bilateral salpingectomy and 203,400 (5.3%) had bilateral tubal ligation overall. During the time period studied, performance of bilateral salpingectomy among women undergoing cesarean delivery significantly increased from 4.6% to 13.2% (odds ratio for the fourth quarter of 2018 vs the fourth quarter of 2015, 2.69; 95% confidence interval, 2.63-2.75; Figure panel). In contrast, performance of bilateral tubal ligation among women undergoing cesarean delivery significantly decreased from 11.3% to 2.4% (odds ratio, 0.20; 95% confidence interval, 0.19-0.21). By the third quarter of 2016, the number of women who had bilateral salpingectomy exceeded those who had bilateral tubal ligation at cesarean delivery (8.6% vs 7.3%). Increasing the utilization of bilateral salpingectomy did not vary across age groups; the salpingectomy rate increased from 7.5% to 21.1% among women at the age of ≥35 years and from 3.8% to 10.7% among women at the age of <35 years (both, P<.001). In a propensity score matched model, women in the bilateral salpingectomy group were more likely to have hemorrhage (3.8% vs 3.1%; odds ratio, 1.24; 95% confidence interval, 1.15-1.33), blood product transfusion (2.1% vs 1.8%; odds ratio, 1.16; 95% confidence interval, 1.04-1.30), hysterectomy (0.8% vs 0.4%; odds ratio, 2.28; 95% confidence interval, 1.84-2.82), and oophorectomy (0.3% vs 0.2%; odds ratio, 2.02; 95% confidence interval, 1.47-2.79) than those in the bilateral tubal ligation group. When restricted to the nonhysterectomy cases, the bilateral salpingectomy group had a higher rate of hemorrhage (3.4% vs 3.0%; odds ratio, 1.16; 95% confidence interval, 1.06-1.26) and oophorectomy (0.3% vs 0.1%; odds ratio, 1.75; 95% confidence interval, 1.22-2.50) than the bilateral tubal ligation group. CONCLUSION: In the United States, the utilization of bilateral salpingectomy at the time of cesarean delivery increased rapidly between 2015 and 2018, replacing tubal ligation as the most common type of sterilization performed with cesarean delivery. The higher surgical morbidity in the bilateral salpingectomy group than the bilateral tubal ligation group observed in this study warrants further investigation.

INTRODUCTION: This study examined national-level trends, characteristics, and perioperative outcomes of women who had intra-arterial balloon occlusion at cesarean hysterectomy for placenta accreta spectrum (PAS). MATERIAL AND METHODS: This was a population-based retrospective observational study that queried the National Inpatient Sample from October 2015 to December 2018. Study population was women who underwent hysterectomy at cesarean delivery for PAS (n = 6440 in 806 centers). Exposure allocation was the use of intra-arterial balloon occlusion. Main outcome measures were (a) characteristics associated with intra-arterial balloon occlusion use, and (b) perioperative outcome including hemorrhage, blood transfusion, coagulopathy, shock, urinary tract injury, intra-arterial balloon occlusion-related complication (arterial injury, arterial thrombosis, and lower extremities ischemia), and death, assessed in multivariable analysis. RESULTS: Intra-arterial balloon occlusion was used in 420 (6.5%) women in 64 (7.9%) centers. Utilization of intra-arterial balloon occlusion during cesarean hysterectomy for placenta accreta decreased significantly over time (from 6.3% to 3.1%, p < 0.001), but not in placenta increta (from 12.8% to 9.3%, p = 0.204) or placenta percreta (from 21.3% to 17.5%, p = 0.344). In a multivariable analysis, patient factors (younger age, earlier year, obesity, diabetes mellitus), pregnancy factors (placenta increta/percreta, previous cesarean delivery, placenta previa, and early gestational age), and facility factors (large bed capacity, urban teaching status, and Northeast/West regions) represented the independent characteristics for using the intra-arterial balloon occlusion (all, p < 0.05). In a classification-tree model, the absolute difference in intra-arterial balloon occlusion use among 18 utilization patterns was 48% (range, 0%-48%). In perioperative outcome analysis, women who received intra-arterial balloon occlusion were more likely to have coagulopathy (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 3.43) and arterial thrombosis (aOR 9.82) in placenta accreta, but less likely to have hemorrhage (aOR 0.25) in placenta increta, and blood transfusion (aOR 0.60) and urinary tract injury (aOR 0.28) in placenta percreta compared with those who did not (all, p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: There is a wide range in the utilization of intra-arterial balloon occlusion at cesarean hysterectomy for PAS based on patient, pregnancy, and facility factors, which implies that there is a lack of universal practice guidelines in this surgical procedure. Whether the use of intra-arterial balloon occlusion in the severe forms of PAS improves surgical outcome merits further investigation.

INTRODUCTION: The US population has witnessed an epidemic expansion of obesity in the past several decades; nearly 50% of the population is projected to be obese by 2030 and 25% morbidly obese. This study examined trends, characteristics and outcomes of morbidly obese women who underwent benign hysterectomy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This is a population-based retrospective observational study querying the National Inpatient Sample from January 2012 to September 2015. The study population included 509 395 women who underwent hysterectomy for benign gynecological disease: 430 865 (84.6%) non-obese women, 50 435 (9.9%) women with class I-II obesity and 28 095 (5.5%) women with class III obesity. Main outcome measures were (i) cohort-level trends of obesity and perioperative complications assessed by piecewise linear regression with log transformation and (ii) patient-level perioperative complication risk by body habitus assessed with a generalized estimating equation after using a multiple-group generalized boosted model. RESULTS: The rate of class III obesity increased by 40.4%, higher than the rate of class I-II obesity (22.2%) (both, P < .001). In parallel, cohort-level rates of perioperative complication and prolonged hospitalization for ≥7 days increased by 19.4% and 54%, respectively (P < .001). In a weighted model, class I-II obesity (16.4% vs 14.6%, odds ratio 1.15, 95% confidence interval 1.08-1.21) and class III obesity (19.2% vs 14.6%, odds ratio 1.39, 95% confidence interval 1.28-1.51) had a significantly increased risk of perioperative complications compared with non-obesity. Larger body habitus was associated with higher total charge (median, $35 180, $36 094 and $39 382; all values cited in US dollars) and prolonged admission rate for ≥7 days (2.9%, 3.1% and 3.9%) (both, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: The rate of obesity, particularly morbid obesity, has significantly increased among women undergoing benign hysterectomy in the USA. Morbidly obese women had adverse perioperative outcomes, and the increasing number of morbidly obese women resulted in both an increased perioperative morbidity and total charges as a cohort. National and society-based approaches are necessary to reduce the obesity rate and hysterectomy morbidity.

STUDY OBJECTIVE: Recent studies suggest that prolonged Trendelenburg positioning during robot-assisted total laparoscopic hysterectomy (RA-TLH) may lead to fluid shifts and pulmonary, airway, head and neck, and cranial complications in the upper body. This study examined the upper-body complications during RA-TLH for benign gynecologic disease. DESIGN: Population-based retrospective study. SETTING: The National Inpatient Sample. PATIENTS: A total of 771 412 women who had total hysterectomy for benign gynecologic disease from October 2008 to September 2015, including 661 284 women who had total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH), 51 544 women who had traditional TLH, and 58 584 women who had RA-TLH. INTERVENTIONS: A multiple-group generalized boosted model to balance the measured baseline covariates across the 3 hysterectomy groups and a generalized estimating equation model to assess the effect size of complication risk (overall and upper-body complications). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Women in the RA-TLH group were more likely to be older, white, and have a higher comorbidity index (all, p <.001). The overall rate of upper-body complications was 4.6% across the 3 groups. RA-TLH was not associated with increased risk of upper-body complications compared with traditional TLH (odds ratio [OR] 1.06; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.90-1.26) or TAH (OR 0.98; 95% CI, 0.87-1.11). In contrast, RA-TLH was associated with decreased risk of overall perioperative complications compared with TAH (12.0% vs 18.6%; OR 0.64; 95% CI, 0.59-0.70; p <.001). RA-TLH and traditional TLH had similar risk of overall perioperative complications (12.0% vs 13.1%; OR 0.91; 95% CI, 0.8-1.02; pâ¯=â¯.099). Women who developed upper-body complications had a higher perioperative mortality rate (0.4% vs <0.01%; OR 79.1; 95% CI, 36.0-174). The highest rates of complications (62.5%) were observed in morbidly obese women aged 70-79 with a comorbidity index of ≥4. CONCLUSION: In hysterectomy for benign gynecologic disease, RA-TLH was not associated with an increased risk of upper-body complications compared with TAH or traditional TLH. However, older age and higher comorbidity are key risk factors that increase the risk of upper-body complications which carry a disproportionally high mortality rate.
