Hysterectomy study abandoned after just one patient
NCT ID NCT06471049
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to compare how often women could go home the same day after a hysterectomy using three different minimally invasive techniques: vNOTES (through the vagina), conventional laparoscopy, and robot-assisted laparoscopy. The trial was terminated early after enrolling only one participant, so no meaningful conclusions could be drawn. The goal was to see which approach allowed for safe same-day discharge.
