Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Operation time

    The operation time was defined as the period from the incision to the closure of the skin.

    1 day (the operation day)

Study Arms (1)

LETS-M

Women who were older than 20 years old and had not reached menopause, with symptomatic uterine myomas, such as hypermenorrhea, infertility, a mass effect-related urinary frequency, and constipation, received LETS-M.

Procedure: LETS-M

Interventions

LETS-MPROCEDURE

A 1.5-centimeter skin incision was made over the umbilicus, and the abdominal wall was opened layer by layer with an open method. A wound retractor (Alexis, 2-4 centimeter; Applied Medical Resources Corp., Rancho Santa Margarita, CA) was placed, and the glove port was set up, with a 10-millimeter trocar in the thumb over patient's right side, and a 5-millimeter trocar in the little finger over the left side. The pneumoperitoneum was established. A 10-millimeter rigid laparoscope was inserted via the 10-millimeter trocar and controlled by the assistant. The ancillary 5-millimeter port was made over the left lower abdomen under laparoscope inspection. The surgeon performed the surgery via the two 5-millimeter trocars.
