Abstract

OBJECTIVE: We sought to determine whether there is an increased rate of vaginal adhesion complications between a hematologic cancer survivor population and a benign population after vaginal prolapse surgery. METHODS: or Fisher exact test and the Wilcoxon rank-sum test were used to compare categorical and continuous data, respectively, between the hematology patients and noncancer controls. RESULTS: 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Women with hematologic cancer had a higher rate of vaginal adhesion complications from prolapse surgery as compared with women without cancer.
