In this study, we aimed to evaluate women who had been hospitalized because of anemia (Hb level <10 g/dL) caused by gynecologic pathologies and treated with either intravenous iron (ferric carboxymaltose) or blood transfusion.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This retrospective cross-sectional study was performed in a tertiary care center. Women who were hospitalized with the diagnosis of anemia with Hb level<10 g/dL and abnormal uterine bleeding between March 2015- September 2017 in the gynecology clinic were enrolled in the study. Hemoglobin levels, hemoglobin changes, uterine pathology and treatment of patients were recorded and compared.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>One hundred and fifteen women received red blood cell transfusion and 100 women were treated with intravenous ferric carboxymaltose. The mean age of the women was 45.1±6.1 (22-57) years. Although the mean Hb levels were higher in the iv-iron replacement group at the end of the one month (P=0.001), the mean increase in Hb levels was similar between two treatment modalities (P=0.101). Among the anemic women who required surgery, iv iron replacement was the first choice in 75.9% of women; 34.1% received red blood cell transfusion in the preoperative period.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Gynecological pathologies are a common cause of anemia in reproductive age women and intravenous carboxymaltose treatment is a safe and cheaper alternative of blood-transfusion in appropriate cases to elevate the Hb levels in the preoperative period.</p>","PeriodicalId":18572,"journal":{"name":"Minerva obstetrics and gynecology","volume":"75 5","pages":"399-404"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41146402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
