AB  - INTRODUCTION: Sex reassignment surgery is an important step for transsexuals, 
      since it is known to help the patients to live more easily in their gender role 
      and to significantly increase quality of life. AIMS: To critically evaluate our 
      experience with the combined procedure of hysterectomy, bilateral 
      salpingo-oophorectomy, and bilateral mastectomy for female-to-male (FtM) 
      transsexual patients. METHODS: Thirty-two FtM transsexuals who underwent 
      hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and bilateral mastectomy in one 
      single operative setting. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Operating time and 
      complications, both intra-and postoperatively. RESULTS: Patients were 30.0 +/- 5.8 
      years of age, with a body mass index of 24.8 +/- 3.5 kg/m(2). The majority of 
      patients underwent hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy by 
      laparoscopy (31/32, 96.9%). The median operating time was 222.5 minutes 
      (inter-quartile range [IQR] 190-270 minutes). The median postoperative stay was 
      eight days (IQR, 7-9 days). Postoperative adverse events were found in five 
      patients (15.6%), including breast hematomas as the most frequent complication 
      (4/32, 12.5%). In one patient (1/32; 3.1%), conversion from laparoscopy to 
      laparotomy was necessary, which was considered an adverse event. None of our 
      patients required reoperation or readmission to the hospital. CONCLUSION: 
      Combined hysterectomy/salpingo-oophorectomy, and bilateral mastectomy in a single 
      operating session seems a safe, feasible, and valuable procedure for FtM 
      transsexuals.
