Filter by:Multi-center prospective randomized trial of single port laparoscopic surgery (SILS) versus conventional 3-4 ports laparoscopic hysterectomy. Hypothesis is that conversion rate of SILS is not inferior to that of conventional approach.
Minimally invasive surgery has become the standard treatment for many gynecologic disease processes. In the last decade, numerous studies have demonstrated that laparoscopic approaches to various gynecologic oncology conditions-particularly for early-stage endometrial and cervical cancers as well as select pelvic masses-is feasible and results in shorter hospital stays, improved quality of life and comparable surgical and oncologic outcomes to abdominal staging [1-5].For instance, the typical gynecologic robotic surgical procedure will require Two to three 5-mm ports and one 12-mm laparoscopic ports. Recently, an even less invasive alternative to conventional laparoscopy surgery has been developed: laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS), also known as single-port surgery. Single port laparoscopy is an attempt to further enhance the cosmetic benefits of minimally invasive surgery while minimizing the potential morbidity associated with multiple incisions. However, to our knowledge, there are no randomize control trial to evaluate of single port or multiple ports laparoscopic surgery in gynecologic disorders. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of SPA-LAVH in the treatment of benign uterine disease.
Laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH)has become the most prevalent operation method in woman suffering from uterine myoma or adenomyosis nowadays. The operation decisions for these women are always due to symptoms such as pain, anemia and mass effect. However, there is a lack of measurement for these symptoms and therefore highlight the need to validate these symptom by health-related quality of life (QOL) assessments. Patients usually recovered better by LAVH comparing to traditional open surgeries. However, LAVH was restricted to cases with small size uteri and most QOL reported neglected uterine weight or were based on small uteri size. We recently intervened a new surgical procedure called RULU during LAVH and thus released this limitation. This will give a more unbiased study on the effect of QOL in patients receiving LAVH. In this study, we plan to use two questionnaires: the disease specific UFS-QOL and the WHO-QOL Taiwan version questionnaires for patients receiving LAVH. Assessment will be performed before operation; and 3 days, 7 days, 3 months and 18 months after operation. From these assessments, we plan to determine which QOL variables will be useful as operation guidelines for patients suffering from leiomyoma or adenomyosis, and for the assessment of appropriates and outcomes of LAVH.
