Hysterectomy via transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery for nonprolapsed uteri

Abstract: tVNOTEH can be safely performed for large and nonprolapsed uterus. Besides, as uterine weight increased, the operative efficiency of tVNOTEH increases compared with LAVH.

“…The findings of a shorter length of hospital stay with vNOTES are consistent with the findings of a systematic review and meta‐analysis including two observational studies . Based on the findings of that systematic review, length of hospital stay was shorter with vNOTES than with LAVH.…”

“…Interestingly, the mean operative time, amount of blood loss, and postoperative hospital stay resulted significantly inferior in the NOTES group, regardless of uterine weight. Although there was no difference in the overall incidence of operative complications between the two groups, there were more complications in the LAVH group for uterine weight more than 500 g [8].…”

“…Furthermore, the uterine weight did not substantially affect the main surgery console time. Although a previous study on laparoscopic hysterectomy reported a positive correlation between the uterine weight and operation time [12], a recent study by Silasi et al [13] demonstrated that increasing uterine size does not proportionally affect the operation time in robotic or abdominal hysterectomy. In minimally invasive hysterectomies, most surgeons have to morcellate the large uterus into small pieces to facilitate its removal from the abdominal cavity, which is typically time consuming.…”
