Comparing two types of surgery for ovarian cysts or removal
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two minimally invasive surgery methods for removing ovarian cysts or ovaries: one through a small incision in the belly button and one through the vagina. The goal is to see which approach leads to better recovery and less pain.

This study tests a new type of surgery that uses a single small cut in the belly button to do gynecologic operations as day surgery (go home the same day). The goal is to see if it's safe and works well for patients.
This study compares two minimally invasive surgery methods for endometrial cancer: traditional laparoscopy (small cuts in the belly) and vNOTES (surgery through the vagina). Both use a sentinel lymph node biopsy to check if cancer has spread, and the goal is to see which approach works better.
This study compares two ways to remove the uterus without a big belly cut: standard vaginal surgery versus a newer keyhole method (vNOTES). Both aim to help women with non-cancerous uterine conditions recover faster and avoid a large incision.
This study tests a less invasive way to remove the ovaries and fallopian tubes through the vagina, which may lead to faster recovery and less pain compared to traditional surgery. It is for people having this surgery for non-cancerous reasons.
This trial compares two types of minimally invasive surgery for ectopic pregnancy to see which works better. Both procedures remove the fallopian tube and pregnancy without a large belly incision.
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.
