Nerve Block to Improve Surgical Field in Pituitary Surgery
This trial tests whether blocking a specific nerve in the face (sphenopalatine ganglion) during pituitary tumor surgery improves the surgeon's view and reduces bleeding. Pituitary adenomas are non-cancerous tumors in the brain that are removed through the nose using a camera.
CairoAges 1.8 years–60 years - NCT07117708Recruiting
Timing of cesarean consent discussions during labor
This study looks at when to talk with patients about the possibility of an unplanned cesarean section before or during labor. It may help make the consent process less stressful for people who are planning to have their labor started.

Surgical training study for medical students
This study tests a new surgery training program for medical students. It aims to help students learn more during their OBGYN rotation.
Detroit, MichiganAges Any age - NCT07406412Recruiting
Hormones and heart health before and after ovary removal
This study looks at how hormones affect heart health and metabolism in women who are having their ovaries removed (for non-cancer reasons). It will help researchers understand the changes that happen after surgery and how to better manage health during this transition.
HelsinkiAges 35–50 - NCT07073664Enrolling by invitation
Endoscopic sinus expansion plus Stapokibart for chronic sinusitis
This trial tests if a new drug (Stapokibart) combined with a sinus surgery improves symptoms like nasal congestion, discharge, and loss of smell in people with type 2 chronic sinusitis.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–75 - NCT06949007Recruiting
Yoga for persistent pain after torso surgery
This study tests whether yoga or a health education program can help reduce long-term pain that started after a torso surgery like a chest, breast, or abdominal operation. You must have had surgery at least 3 months ago with moderate pain, and be able to attend classes in person or virtually.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07166627Recruiting
Treating cesarean scar pregnancy: surgery vs. ultrasound-guided drainage
This trial compares two ways to treat a pregnancy that implants in a previous cesarean scar. The goal is to find out which method is safer and more effective for women with this condition in the first trimester.
SohagAges 18–45 - NCT07364006Recruiting
Accuracy of metal-free guided implant surgery
This study tests a new way to place dental implants in people who need a full set of replacement teeth. It compares the accuracy of a method that uses a metal guide vs. one without it, to see if the simpler method works just as well.
Madrid, MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06107959Recruiting
Metabolism changes after bone or joint surgery
This study measures how your metabolism (how fast your body burns energy) changes after orthopedic surgery (surgery on bones or joints). It may help doctors understand how to better support recovery.
Kansas City, KansasAges 15 years+ - NCT06567691Enrolling by invitation
Comparing two ways to bypass cancer-caused stomach blockage
This trial compares two ways to bypass a stomach or intestinal blockage caused by cancer that cannot be cured with surgery. It tests a newer, less invasive procedure (endoscopic gastroenterostomy) against the standard surgical bypass (gastrojejunostomy) to see which works better for patients like you.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06833034Recruiting
New technique for impacted upper canine teeth
This trial tests a new method to expose an upper canine tooth that is stuck behind the other teeth (palatally impacted). If you have one impacted canine on one side and it's not too high or angled, this study may compare a newer, less invasive exposure technique to the standard approach.
Lund, Skåne CountyAges 10 months–1.5 years - NCT07063979Recruiting
Using a nerve-stimulation band to reduce nausea after weight-loss surgery
This trial tests if adding a small nerve-stimulation device (Reliefband) to standard recovery care can help prevent nausea and vomiting in the first 24 hours after robotic sleeve gastrectomy. If you are having this surgery and match the criteria, you may be able to join.
Plainsboro, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT07043062Recruiting
Comparing keyhole vs. open surgery for bladder fistula repair
