NCT06244251

Brief Summary

Myomectomy was preferably applied in females with reproductive requirements, which could be achieved by transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (TU-LESS) or multi-port laparoscopic surgery (MPLS). Power morcellation used in MPLS was correlated with unidentified risk of tumor dissemination, especially in cases with accidental surgical findings of uterine sarcoma or leiomyosarcoma. Moreover, TU-LESS was reported to exceed MPLS in fast recovery. Therefore, the aim of this prospective cohort study is to compare the effectiveness of fast recovery and relative risk of tumor dissemination between TU-LESS and MPLS in myomectomy for the treatment of uterine fibroids.

Study Arms (2)

TU-LESS for myomectomy

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients complaint of symptoms resulting from uterine fibroids, such as abnormal vaginal bleeding, frequent micturition, lower abdominal pain, constipation, etc or patients with uterine fibroids which were identified accidentally during routine body examination who consulted at our center for surgical removal of the fibroids. In the meantime, the diagnosis of uterine fibroids should be reconfirmed by at least one radiological examination at our center. The patients in the experiment group were those who received transumbilical laparoendoscopic single site surgery (TU-LESS) for myomectomy.

Procedure: TU-LESS

MPLS for myomectomy

In the meantime, the diagnosis of uterine fibroids should be reconfirmed by at least one radiological examination at our center. The patients in the experiment group were those who received multiport laparoscopic surgery (MPLS) for myomectomy.
