Resident's journey to master scarless hysterectomy under the microscope
NCT ID NCT07465822
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study watches a single gynecology resident as they learn to perform a hysterectomy through the vagina using a special camera, leaving no belly scars. The goal is to see how quickly the resident improves, measuring surgery time and any complications. Nineteen women with benign uterine conditions will take part. The results could help design better training for this advanced technique.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (V-NOTES) hysterectomy
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help train surgeons more efficiently in a scarless hysterectomy technique, potentially reducing recovery time for patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, observational study with only 19 patients, so results may not apply broadly. It focuses on a single resident's learning curve, not on comparing outcomes to standard surgery.
