Comparing two types of hysterectomy for non-cancer conditions
Part of Pain clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You do not have suspected cancer, endometriosis, or a tubal-ovarian abscess
- Your pelvic organ prolapse is not severe (grade 2 or less)
- You are willing to participate in the study

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 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 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 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 study compares two minimally invasive surgery techniques (vNOTES vs. laparoscopy) to see how they affect your breathing and heart function during gynecological surgery. It aims to find which method is safer or gentler on your body while under anesthesia.
This study tests whether deep muscle relaxation and a special low-residue diet improve the surgical view during vNOTES hysterectomy for non-cancer conditions. It aims to make the procedure safer and easier for the surgeon.
