Comparing two types of keyhole surgery for ovary removal
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two types of minimally invasive surgery (using small incisions) to remove both ovaries. One method uses 4K high-definition cameras, the other uses 3D cameras. The goal is to see which approach is better for people with non-cancerous ovarian problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a non-cancerous (benign) condition that requires the removal of both ovaries.

- You must not have had any major abdominal surgery in the past.
- You must not be pregnant or have an active pelvic infection.
- You must be willing to give written consent to participate.
