Abstract

To carry out a systematic review of the literature and meta-analysis to identify studies or data that evaluated the patient’s QoL after gender affirmation surgery. Data was collected from PubMed, Scielo, Google Scholar, and Science Direct from the inception of each database to 26 June 2018, in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. A network meta-analysis was applied and a two-tailed p value < 0.05 was the criterium of statistical significance. GRADE was used to assess the overall quality of evidence for each outcome collected. From 2843 articles, 14 studies met the inclusion criteria of the systematic review with 881 individuals. The majority of the 14 included studies originated from Europe. Seven studies involving 420 individuals met the criteria for inclusion in the meta-analysis. Statistical heterogeneity of the results was significant. Evidence of low quality suggests that gender affirmation surgery will likely improve the QoL of transgender individuals. Better overall QoL results were found in the trans men population that underwent chest surgery.
