Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • postoperative hospital stay

    The primary endpoint was to compare average length of postoperative hospital stay and the ratio of patients discharged within 2 days after surgery between LESS and conventional groups.

    within 1 week after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • postoperative pain

    within 1 week after surgery

  • postoperative analgesics requirement

    within 1 week after surgery

  • operating time

    1 day (immediately ater surgery)

  • Transfusion requirement and amount

    within 1 week after surgery

  • intra and postoperative complication

    within 1 months after surgery

Study Arms (2)

Single-port LAVH group

EXPERIMENTAL

single-port laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy

Procedure: Single-port LAVH

Three-port LAVH group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

three-port laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy

Procedure: Three-port LAVH

Interventions

LESS LAVH was performed using a commercially available four-channel, single-port system. A rigid, 0-degree, 5 mm laparoscope was used.

Single-port LAVH group

Conventional LAVH was performed using three ports; a 12, 10, and 5-mm port was placed in the umbilicus, left lower quadrant, and suprapubic area, respectively. A rigid, 0-degree, 12 mm laparoscope was introduced through 12mm port of umbilicus.

Three-port LAVH group
