Influence of alcohol intake on postoperative morbidity after hysterectomy
(1992) In American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology 166(2). p.667-670- Abstract
Postoperative morbidity after hysterectomy was prospectively studied in 229 consecutive patients in our departments. The incidence of alcohol abuse (>60 gm of alcohol daily) and social drinking (between 25 and 60 gm of alcohol daily) was 6.5% for each. When compared with the social drinkers and the control group, the alcohol abuse group had significantly more complications (80% vs 27% and 80% vs 13%, respectively).
