Popis: Objective: The aims of this study was to investigate factors associated with intensive care unit (ICU) admission and prognosis following surgical treatment of gynaecological malignancy. Materials and Methods: This study was designed as a retrospective cohort analysis, which encompasses patients who were subjected to gynecologic oncological surgery and subsequently monitored in the ICU from December 1st, 2022, to December 1st, 2023. Results: Data of 57 patients who underwent gynaecological oncological surgery and were admitted to ICU during the study period were analysed. Median age was 61.47 years, median body mass index 27 kg/m2, American Society of Anaesthesiologists score 3±2.5. The most common indication for ICU admission was haemodynamic instability with 73.6% (n=42), followed by respiratory failure with 15.7% (n=9) and other reasons. Charlson comorbidity index, lactate and base deficit levels were higher and albumin values were lower in patients with ICU stay of 3 days or more (p=0.04, p=0.004, p=0.034, p=0.025). Only 2 patients (3.5%) developed mortality during the study period. Conclusion: The most common indication for ICU follow-up after elective gynaecological oncology surgery is hemodynamic instability with low ICU mortality and short length of stay in general.
