This chapter from “Surgical Gynecology” uses a case-based approach, presenting multiple patient scenarios involving gynecologic surgery, perioperative complications, and special considerations across diverse ages and clinical indications. The material is organized as individual cases (e.g., hysterectomy decisions, intraoperative events, postoperative complications, and related procedural management), but the provided text does not describe a study design, analytic methods, population selection, or outcome metrics, and the main limitation is that no systematic results or conclusions are specified in the excerpt. Endometriosis is mentioned in at least one case scenario (a 40-year-old with stage IV endometriosis and another case of endometriosis desiring definitive management). This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it includes multiple surgical case discussions for patients with endometriosis.

Abstract

A multiparous, 45-year-old woman presents for preoperative evaluation. She has a long history of abnormal uterine bleeding that has been inadequately managed with her current levonorgestrel intrauterine device. She now desires definitive surgical management by hysterectomy. During her visit today, she requests that her ovaries be removed during the surgery. She shares that a good friend recently passed away after a long battle with ovarian cancer and she wants to lower her own risk of ovarian cancer as much as possible. Her past medical history includes depression managed on escitalopram 20 mg daily, and borderline hypertension currently managed with lifestyle modification. She has had no prior surgery.
