Laparoscopic Versus Vaginal Approach Closure Complications

Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Vaginal Vault Prolapse

• Registration Number: NCT05960292
• Lead Sponsor: Egymedicalpedia

Brief Summary

Hysterectomy is considered as a common operation in Gynecology. Hysterectomy could be made by vaginally, laparoscopically or abdominally. The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologist advises the use of a minimally invasive technique for the sake of women and to decrease hospital stay and costs.

Detailed Description

Laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) is a minimally invasive operation that could be made when vaginal hysterectomy is not accessible due to anatomical problems.

Vaginal cuff dehiscence (VCD) is a severe adverse event and occurs more frequently after total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) compared with abdominal and vaginal hysterectomy.

The study shows effects of the laparoscopic approach versus the vaginal route for the management of vaginal cuff closure during total laparoscopic hysterectomy on female sexual function.
