This study suggests that robotic-assisted hysterectomy has comparable outcomes and possibly fewer complications than other methods of minimally invasive hysterectomy.
There were no differences in complications between O Vicryl™ figure-of-eight vaginal cuff closure and closure with V-Loc™ barbed sutures in this study.
Background and Objectives: Empirical evidence is needed to assess clinical appropriateness of any new surgical device or material. Differences in surgical outcomes between Vicryl figure-of-8 and V-Loc barbed sutures for vaginal cuff closure during robotic hysterectomy were assessed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
