Effectiveness: patients without failure or complications over time
The rate of patients without
failure over time according to each surgical strategy is presented in
Figure 2. Hysterectomy was the most effective strategy, as the rate of
patients without failure was the highest over time, attaining 97.2% at
18 months and remaining stable until 60 months (Table 2). Conversely,
the rate of patients without failure for 2G, 1G and curettage, being
90.1%, 87.3% and 79.4% at 18 months (p<0.0001), showed
decrease over time.
The rate of patients without complication over time according to each
surgical group is presented in Figure 3. Women undergoing hysterectomy
were at significantly higher risk for complications after surgery than
women undergoing 2G procedures (p<0.0001), whereas those
undergoing 1G procedures or curettage were at significantly lower risk
than patients treated by 2G procedure (p<0.0001).
