Objectives:  explaining concepts related to economic evaluation in healthcare by using a critical cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) study. Materials and methods:  a search was made of the Medline database via PubMed based on a clinical question. A study was selected which approached the matter in hand. The elements which a reader should bear in mind were set out; they were explained by means of examples from already published economic evaluation in healthcare studies regarding gynecology and a critical analysis was made of these aspects in the selected publication. Results:  the following elements must be taken into account for a critical reading of a CEA study: the alternatives for making comparisons, cost determination, effectiveness, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio and a sensitivity analysis. Understanding these elements will lead to a much deeper evaluation of such studies. Conclusions:  economic evaluation deserves to be considered by healthcare professionals as this leads to efficient decisions being taken when treating patients.
