  1. A multivariate analysis of 323 patients with TLH was performed to examine the influence of 11 representative factors that were collected from medical records. The number of patients with each factor, the ORs and 95% CIs for occurrence of surgical complications and the p-values are shown in this table. “Nulliparity”, “ovarian tumour” and “heavy uterus” were identified as significant factors for the occurrence of intraoperative complications. No factor was significantly associated with the occurrence of postoperative complications
  2. BMI body mass index, PLA pelvic lymphadenectomy, LC laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy, OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval, NS no significance
