vNOTES Versus Vaginal Hysterectomy for Benign Gynecologic Indications
Comparison of Early and Late Postoperative Outcomes of vNOTES and Vaginal Hysterectomy in Benign Gynecological Indications: A Randomized Non-Inferiority Trial
This randomized non-inferiority trial aims to compare early and late postoperative outcomes of transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) hysterectomy and vaginal hysterectomy in women undergoing hysterectomy for benign gynecological indications. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to either vNOTES hysterectomy or vaginal hysterectomy. The primary outcome is postoperative pain at 24 hours measured by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Secondary outcomes include postoperative recovery, complications, length of hospital stay, return of bowel function, urinary catheter duration, readmission, and recovery index scores. The study will be conducted at Harran University Hospital.
연구 개요
상세 설명
This prospective, randomized, non-inferiority controlled trial is designed to compare transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) hysterectomy and vaginal hysterectomy in women with benign gynecological indications requiring hysterectomy.
The study will be conducted at Harran University Hospital after ethics committee approval and clinical trial registration. Eligible participants will include women aged 18-65 years who are suitable candidates for both surgical techniques. Patients with gynecological malignancy, severe endometriosis, advanced uterine prolapse, pregnancy, active pelvic infection, or high surgical risk will be excluded.
Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the vNOTES hysterectomy group or the vaginal hysterectomy group using computer-based block randomization. All surgical procedures will be performed by an experienced surgeon. Although blinding of surgeons and participants is not feasible, postoperative outcome assessments and statistical analyses will be conducted by blinded researchers.
The primary outcome measure is postoperative pain at 24 hours assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Secondary outcomes include postoperative recovery, return of bowel motility, urinary catheter duration, hospital stay, postoperative complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification, readmission rates, and postoperative recovery index scores.
Data will be collected during the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative periods using standardized forms. Patients will be evaluated on postoperative day 0, day 1, day 7, and at postoperative month 1.
Statistical analyses will be performed using SPSS software. Appropriate parametric or non-parametric tests will be used according to data distribution. Non-inferiority analysis will be performed using the 95% confidence interval of the between-group difference for the primary outcome.

Uterine size corresponding to ≤14 weeks of gestation. Mobile uterus on gynecological examination. Vaginal access suitable for surgical intervention (absence of vaginal stenosis or severe anatomical restrictions).
Considered eligible for both vaginal hysterectomy and vNOTES hysterectomy during preoperative evaluation.
Provision of written informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
