Compare two ways to remove the uterus through the vagina
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares a newer “vaginal NOTES” approach with the standard way of removing the uterus through the vagina. It may help find which method is safer or easier for people who need a hysterectomy for non-cancer (benign) reasons.

This trial compares two ways to remove the uterus through the vagina, using either special instruments (VNOTES) or the traditional approach (vaginal hysterectomy). It is for women who need this surgery for non-cancer reasons.
This trial is testing a newer, less invasive way to perform a hysterectomy called vNOTES. It uses a small camera inserted through the vagina to help surgeons remove the uterus, and may offer faster recovery for women with non-cancerous conditions.
This study looks at two ways to remove the uterus and cervix for early-stage cervical cancer: minimally invasive surgery (like laparoscopic or robotic) versus open surgery (traditional large incision). It checks whether the less invasive approach works just as well in terms of survival and keeping the cancer from coming back.
This trial compares two surgical approaches to remove a large, non-cancerous uterus (hysterectomy): a vaginal “through natural opening” endoscopic method versus the usual laparoscopic approach. It aims to see how these options compare for safety and recovery when the uterus is too large for simpler surgery.
This trial tests a new tool that helps doctors see better during vaginal hysterectomy (removing the uterus through the vagina). It is for women with uterine fibroids who need this surgery, and aims to see if it is safe and works well.
This study compares two newer, less invasive surgical methods for removing an enlarged uterus (total hysterectomy). The goal is to see which approach works better for women with a uterus weighing at least 280 grams (about the size of a 3-month pregnancy). Both techniques are performed through small incisions, avoiding open surgery.
