Not Applicable

• Conditions: Cosmetic Outcomes

• Registration Number: NCT01826578
• Lead Sponsor: Seoul National University Hospital

Brief Summary

This study is about the evaluation of which benefits single port laparoscopic myomectomy has in the perspective of cosmetics and patient satisfaction.

Detailed Description

There were several studies about feasibility and cosmetic benefit of single port laparoscopic adnexal surgery and hysterectomy compared to conventional multiport laparoscopic surgery. Meanwhile, no study mentioned benefit of single port laparoscopic surgery in myomectomy because single port myomectomy needs more labor and operator's skill than other pelvic surgery. At this point, the investigators need to verify the effectiveness and benefit of single port laparoscopic myomectomy.
