Risk factors for major complications following colorectal resections for endometriosis in the USA.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

We aimed to describe the incidence and identify risk factors for the occurrence of short-term major posto-perative complications following colorectal resection for endometriosis.

Methods

Women who underwent open surgery had a higher proportion of major complications (n = 53, 20.4% vs. n = 49, 9.9%, p < 0.001). In a multivaria
