The rate of obesity, particularly morbid obesity, has significantly increased among women undergoing benign hysterectomy in the USA. Morbidly obese women had adverse perioperative outcomes, and the increasing number of morbidly obese women resulted in both an increased perioperative morbidity and total charges as a cohort. National and society-based approaches are necessary to reduce the obesity rate and hysterectomy morbidity.
