This joint Clinical Consensus Statement on the safety and feasibility of concomitant urogynecologic and gynecologic oncology surgical procedures reflects statements drafted by content experts from the American Urogynecologic Society and the Society of Gynecologic Oncology. The writing group used a Delphi process to evaluate statements developed from a structured literature search and assessed consensus. A total of 35 statements were assessed in the following categories: (1) background, (2) treatment options, (3) timing of concurrent surgery, (4) risk factors, and (5) value-based care. Of the 35 statements, 28 reached consensus on initial review. Three statements were omitted, and 4 statements were revised and reached consensus following second review utilizing the Delphi process.
