Complications listed in table occurred at a minimum of 1 year postoperatively. Nine studies were included, with a cumulative total of 748 patients. Because Ostrzenski only examined patients reporting severe surgical outcomes, rather than follow-up of a broader population of labiaplasty patients, this study was not included in the analysis.21
