Abstract

Purpose

Due to early detection and effective treatment, quality of sexual life of patients with gynaecological malignancies has become an important issue. However, the morbidity of sexual dysfunction and the proportion of different kinds of sexual dysfunction after radical hysterectomy are unclear. The aim of the current study was to assess the morbidity of sexual dysfunction and to conduct multivariate logistic regression analysis of patients’ sexual dysfunction.

Methods

Between July 2007 and December 2012, 125 women underwent radical hysterectomy, modified radical hysterectomy, and nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy were administered a self-reported sexual function questionnaire.

Results

The preoperative, and 1- and 2-year postoperative sexual dysfunction rates were 50.5% (50/99), 86.9% (93/107), and 92.3% (72/78), respectively. The incidence rates of sexual desire disorders before operation, at postoperative year 1, and at postoperative year 2 were 14.7% (14/95), 42.1% (45/107), and 51.9% (40/77), respectively. The preoperative incidence rates of sexual arousal disorders, orgasmic disorders, and sexual pain disorders were 18.4% (18/98), 51.1% (48/94), and 10.9% (11/101), respectively. At postoperative years 1 and 2, these were 38.8% (31/80), 81.0% (64/79), and 24.4% (20/82), and 49.1% (26/53), 84.6% (44/52), and 30.2% (16/53), respectively. Multivariable regression analysis revealed that age, preserved ovary, preserved posterior vaginal wall length, preoperative stage, radiotherapy, and education background were risk factors associated with sexual dysfunction.

Conclusion

The patients following radical hysterectomy had a high incidence of sexual dysfunction, which plateaued in postoperative years 1 and 2.
