Filter by:This is a prospective, randomized, single-center, observational clinical trial at the Department of Women's Health of the University Clinic Tübingen. Four hundred patients affected by uterine diseases that undergo treatment with robotic assisted laparoscopic procedures using the Da Vinci Robotic Surgical System (200 patients) or conventional laparoscopic surgery (200 patients) will be recruited. In addition retrospective data of 200 patients that underwent conventional laparoscopic surgery in the past will be documented. At the end of patient recruitment, surgical procedure times, the technical limits encountered, estimated blood loss, intra- and post-operative complications and the percentage of conversions from the robotic assisted treatment /conventional laparoscopic surgery to multiple access and/or to a laparotomic (open) approach will be documented.
This study will assess the change in endometrial gene expression signature on the day of embryo transfer according to the type of exogenous gonadotropins administered.
The target population for our study is women who present for induction of labor. If there is a decision by the obstetrical team to place a mechanical dilator for cervical ripening, the obstetrical team will notify the research staff so that the patient may be screened for the study. If the subject is eligible for the trial, written informed consent will be obtained by person-to-person contact. The PI, study coordinator, or a collaborator will be responsible for the informed consent procedure. After informed consent is obtained and Dilapan-S is placed, the patient will be randomized to the Outpatient or the Inpatient group.
To evaluate the endometrial and isthmic microbiota in patients with isthmocele after C-Section, and if this microbiota is similar or not with better reproductive outcomes.
Aim: Determine if Rapid Evaporative Ionization Mass Spectrometry (the iKnife); can diagnose cancer and pre-cancer from endometrial tissue biopsy samples. Women attending a gynaecology clinic for assessment of abnormal bleeding will receive an pelvic (internal) ultrasound as routine standard of care. If any abnormalities are detected, a tissue sample will be needed. If women are agreeable a second tissue sample will be taken for research. The first will be analysed by conventional means (histopathology). The second sample with new technology called the 'iKnife'. This is a modified type of Mass spectrometry device, that separates particles based on their mass charge ratio. The idea being that if tissue is burnt, gas is produced, and this gas contains lots of ions that can be analysed by the iKnife. Each type of tissue (cancer or non-cancer) will have a unique signature that the iKnife can use to distinguish between samples. If effective it could be used in future outpatient clinics to provide a one-stop, true point of care diagnosis.
Since the introduction of total laparoscopic hysterectomy in 1989, laparoscopic gynecologic surgery has undergone many advances. TLH or LAVH has the advantages of faster recovery, fewer complications and shorter hospitalization compared to total abdominal hysterectomy. However, the hysterectomy for giant uterus has the difficulty of delivering the uterus out of the body. According to the results of TLH, LAVH and abdominal hysterectomy, TLH and LAVH show the postoperative complications were less frequent (3) and the postoperative recovery (4) and return to daily life were faster than total abdominal hysterectomy (3) even if it took longer operation time. Therefore, laparoscopic hysterectomy has many advantages over abdominal hysterectomy and indications are increasing. However, there has not yet been a direct comparison between TLH and VALH for large uterine surgery. In this study, we compared the results including the complications, hospitalization period and so on., in undergoing operation and post-operation between TLH and LAVH for the removal of giant uterus, which is predicted to be over 500 g.
This is a prospective, single-center clinical trial. One hundred and fifty patients affected by adnexal and uterine diseases will be recruited to undergo treatment with robotic assisted laparoscopic procedures using the innovative TELELAP ALF-X Endoscopic Robotic Surgical System with the primary objective of assessing the feasibility, efficacy and safety of this approach.
The purpose of this study to assess the proliferative effects of erythropoetin on human endometrium tissue by measuring the endometrial thickness, uterine artery and subendometrial blood flow in postmenopausal women.
The purpose of the study is to investigate whether the speed of tenaculum placement affects perceived patient pain during office transcervical procedures.
Objective: To randomly compare hysterectomy by vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (vNOTES) versus laparoscopy uterus in women with benign gynecological pathology. Study design: Randomized controlled/single center/single-blinded/parallel-group/non-inferiority/efficacy trial. Study population: All women aged 18 to 70 years regardless of parity with a non-prolapsed uterus and a benign indication for hysterectomy. Primary study outcome parameters: successful removal of the uterus by the intended technique. Secondary outcomes: the proportion of women admitted to the in-hospital ward; postoperative pain scores; the total amount of analgesics used; postoperative infection; per- or postoperative complications; hospital readmission rates; duration of the surgical procedure; incidence and intensity of dyspareunia; sexual wellbeing; health-related quality of life; costs.
