Postoperative pulmonary complications and outcomes in cytoreductive surgery for ovarian cancer: a propensity-matched analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To assess the prevalence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs), the perioperative factors associated with PPCs, and the association of PPCs with postoperative outcomes in ovarian cancer patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery.

Methods

A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent cytoreductive surgery in our hospital, between September 2017 and January 2021, and patient medical records were reviewed to collect relevant clinical information. Univariable and multivariable analyses were used to identify significant risk factors for PPCs. Analysis of the association of PPCs with postoperative outcomes, mortality and 30-day readmission, was undertaken utilizing propensity score-matched controls and multivariable logistic regression model.
