Overall mortality rate for patients operated on after mild COVID-19 was 2.27%, similar to uninfected controls.
Patients with moderate-to-severe COVID-19 history showed higher complication rates, especially in complex surgeries.
Thirteen observational studies involving 38,055 patients contributed to the findings on elective surgeries post-COVID-19.
Patients operated on ≥7 weeks post-infection generally did not experience increased perioperative morbidity.
