New surgical trick may cut bleeding in hysterectomy
NCT ID NCT07601971
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether cauterizing the uterine artery at its origin before removing the uterus via laparoscopy reduces blood loss and surgery time compared to the standard technique. It will involve 44 women over 35 with non-cancerous conditions like fibroids or abnormal bleeding. The goal is to see if this small change makes the operation safer and faster.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Procedure: Total laparoscopic hysterectomy with prior uterine artery cauterization from the origin
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this technique could reduce blood loss and shorten surgery time for women undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy for non-cancerous conditions.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 44 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The procedure is not yet proven to be safer or more effective than standard surgery.
