Overview

Benign total hysterectomy is one of the most commonly performed gynecological surgery.

Conventionally performed by a classical surgical approach, it is now provided routinely and for several years by laparoscopy and more recently by Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopy.

A third minimally invasive option is currently being developed and proposed to avoid trans-peritoneal access, using a vaginal trans-laparoscopic technique, defined by the name V-NOTES (Vaginal-Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery).

These minimally invasive approaches have simplified this intervention on many surgical and anesthetic parameters (signing, surgical trauma, pain and post-operative ileus, recovery of autonomy) and consider possible management in the outpatient sector.

This study aims at enrolling women for which a total hysterectomy with or without annexectomy for the treatment of a benign pathology must be scheduled.

The objective of the study is to compare the success rate of outpatient treatment of the V-Notes route and the conventional laparoscopic route and to compare the success rate of outpatient treatment of the V-Notes route and the laparoscopic route assisted robot.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participant aged 18 years old and over
  • Participant for whom a total hysterectomy with or without adnexectomy for the treatment of a benign pathology must be scheduled
  • Participant with no contraindication to being operated on by one of the three approaches under study (conventional laparoscopy, V-Notes, robot-assisted laparoscopy)
  • Patient eligible for outpatient treatment
  • Participant affiliated or beneficiary of a social security regimen
  • Participant having been informed and having given her free, informed and written consent (at the latest on the day of inclusion and before any examination required by the research)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participant with endometriosis with procedure associated with hysterectomy (digestive procedure, extended adhesiolysis, or other procedure)
  • Participant whose physical and/or psychological health is severely impaired, which according to the investigator may affect the participant's understanding and compliance with the study
  • Participant in another research
  • Participant in a period of exclusion from another research still in progress at the time of inclusion
  • Protected participant: adult under guardianship, curatorship or other legal protection, deprived of liberty by judicial or administrative decision

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
