vNOTES Versus Vaginal Hysterectomy for Benign Gynecologic Indications
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
vNOTES Hysterectomy: Transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) hysterectomy performed for benign gynecologic indications. The procedure is conducted through a transvaginal endoscopic approach without abdominal incisions and is compared with conventional vaginal hysterectomy.
Vaginal Hysterectomy: Conventional vaginal hysterectomy performed for benign gynecologic indications using the standard vaginal surgical approach.
Study summary
This randomized non-inferiority trial aims to compare early and late postoperative outcomes of transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) hysterectomy and vaginal hysterectomy in women undergoing hysterectomy for benign gynecological indications. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to either vNOTES hysterectomy or vaginal hysterectomy. The primary outcome is postoperative pain at 24 hours measured by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Secondary outcomes include postoperative recovery, complications, length of hospital stay, return of bowel function, urinary catheter duration, readmission, and recovery index scores. The study will be conducted at Harran University Hospital.
Eligibility
