Abstract:Background: This study aims to evaluate the strength of the association between frailty and intraoperative/postoperative complications in patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for endometrial cancer. Methods: In this retrospective observational multicenter cohort study, frailty was defined beforehand by a modified frailty index (mFI) score of ≥3. Multiple logistic regressions were performed to investigate possible preoperative predictors—including frailty, age, and body mass index—of intraoperat… Show more
