Newer vaginal surgery for hysterectomy may be as safe as standard keyhole method
NCT ID NCT05031182
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compared two surgical techniques for removing the uterus (hysterectomy) due to non-cancerous conditions: the newer vNOTES method (done through the vagina) and standard laparoscopy (keyhole surgery). 145 women took part, and researchers tracked complications, pain, and recovery for six months after surgery. The goal was to see if vNOTES is as safe and well-tolerated as the traditional laparoscopic approach.
