Dr. Michael Noone

Invited discussant Michael Noone, MD, a urogynecologist practicing in Park Ridge, Ill., noted that the gynecologic oncology patients have indeed been shown to have “a significant amount of pelvic floor disorders,” and said this topic “is, of course, quite relevant and is a question that needs to be answered.”

“This study certainly helps us know that we’re doing no harm [in offering concurrent surgery],” he said.

Dr. Davidson and Dr. Noone each reported having no relevant disclosures.
