Hysterectomy for fibroids was linked to increased cardiometabolic risks compared to myomectomy or no surgery, regardless of ovarian retention.

One-sentence paraphrase of the abstract; not a substitute for reading it. No clinical advice. How this works

Abstract

Among patients with fibroids, hysterectomy was associated with higher odds of developing adverse cardiometabolic outcomes compared to myomectomy or no surgery. Retention of the ovaries was not protective among those undergoing hysterectomy.
