How Predictable Is the Operative Time of Laparoscopic Surgery for Ovarian Endometrioma?

Table 4

Nontechnical predictors of shorter and longer duration of laparoscopic surgery for ovarian endometrioma.

Variables	Shorter time <Q1			Longer time >Q3
	aOR	95% CI	value	aOR	95% CI	value
Older age (30)	3.590	1.417–9.091	0.007	1.009	0.453–2.249	0.983
Parity	3.409	1.343–8.651	0.010	1.031	0.408–2.605	0.948
Family history	1.304	0.298–5.707	0.724	3.639	1.246–10.627	0.018

Multinomial logistic regression analyses where the reference category of the dependent variable grouped laparoscopies with a surgical time between the first and third quartiles (Q1–Q3).
aOR: the odds ratios are adjusted for number of cysts (single/multiple) and largest diameter (5 versus >5 cm).
