Özet
Objective: To investigate the predisposing risk factors in the occurrence of complications after vaginal hysterectomy. Material and methods: The data obtained from 223 patients, admitted to tertiary care center that underwent vaginal hysterectomy due to benign pathology between January 2006 and March 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. Chisquare test was used to evaluate variables in categorized groups. Results: Group variables occurred age, number of pregnancies and abortion, parity, stage according to pelvic organ prolapse classification (POP-Q), periods of hospitalization and urinary catheterization. The main complications were hemorrhage, febrile morbidity and vaginal vault prolapse. Advanced age (> 60), pelvic prolapse, long-term hospitalization and urinary catheterization, were predisposing factors for the presence of complications. Conclusion: Vaginal hysterectomy is a safe and effective method, although not completely devoid of intraoperative or postoperative complications. Advanced age (> 60), POP-Q stage 3-4 pelvic prolapse, prolonged hospitalization and urinary catheterization were seem to be predisposing conditions for the existence of complications. Appropriate preoperative planning and meticulous postoperative care may be helpful to reduce the rate of complications.
