Effect of laparoscopy by single-port endoscopic access in benign adnexal surgery: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Laparoscopic surgery has become the preferred surgical approach due to a reduction in postoperative pain, better recovery, shorter hospitalization, and improved esthetic outcomes. Laparoscopic surgery with single-port laparoscopy (SPL) is a laparoscopic surgery technique that is based on making a single parietal incision using a single trocar specifically designed to allow introduction of several instruments. The level of evidence regarding the advantages of SPL in terms of postoperative pain has remained low despite several randomized studies. Adult patients exhibiting a surgical indication for an a priori benign ovarian pathology or for prophylactic purposes that can be performed by laparoscopy will be randomized to receive conventional laparoscopy (CL) or SPL. The aim of our study is to evaluate whether SPL offers advantages over CL in benign adnexal surgery. METHODS:The patients will be evaluated preoperatively to confirm their eligibility. The perioperative data up to 24 h after the intervention, as well as the postoperative data at day 7 and at one month from the intervention will be collected. The primary outcome for the study will be the postoperative pain at 24 h?±?2 h after the intervention. The pain will be assessed by a numeric rating scale of 0-10. Other outcomes will also be assessed, such as pain at other times, the consumption of analgesics, the operative time, perioperative bleeding, the number of additional trocars in the two groups, the incidence of laparoconversion, the esthetic criteria of the scar at one month, the incidence of complications, and the quality of life at one month. DISCUSSION:If our hypothesis is confirmed, this study will provide evidence that the use of SPL can decrease postoperative pain in adnexal surgery. The standard surgical treatment of this condition would thus be modified. TRIAL REGISTRATION:ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02739724 . Registered on 12 April 2016.

Project description:IntroductionTransvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) has already proven its non-inferiority to conventional abdominal laparoscopy (CAL) for hysterectomy without conversion. The results in terms of efficacy and safety are promising. However, we note a lack of medical literature and no specific randomised controlled trial assessing women's sexual function after vNOTES for benign adnexal surgery. The aim of this RCT is to confirm the non-inferiority of the vNOTES approach for benign adnexal pathology compared with CAL on women's sexual function. Secondary outcomes will evaluate vNOTES's efficiency, morbidity and postoperative complications compared with CAL for benign adnexal surgery. The relationship between adnexal mass morcellation and the quality of the histological analysis will also be evaluated as secondary outcome.Methods and analysisWomen aged 18-70 years undergoing a benign adnexal surgery at the Geneva University Hospitals will be eligible and randomised with a 1:1 ratio to the CAL arm or the vNOTES arm, if inclusion criteria are met. Participants will complete the Female Sexual Function Index, the Couple Satisfaction Index-16 and a self-reported questionnaire on dyspareunia within 4 weeks prior to randomisation and at 3+6 months after surgery. General and clinical data will be collected when the patient is enrolled in the study, during hospitalisation and at 1 month postoperative to assess secondary outcomes.An absence of impairment on sexual function will be confirmed with a stability or an improvement of the evaluated scores in each group at 3 and 6 months postoperative compared with the preoperative scores. We expect to have no statistically significant difference in sexuality questionnaires scores between the two groups.Ethics and disseminationProtocol of this study was validated by the Cantonal Research Ethics Commission of Geneva, Switzerland, on 9 August 2022. We aim to publish the study's results in peer-reviewed journals within 3 years.Trial registration numberNCT05761275.

Project description:IntroductionNatural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) uses natural body orifices to access the cavities of the human body to perform surgery. NOTES limits the magnitude of surgical trauma and has the potential to reduce postoperative pain. This is the first randomised study in women bound to undergo hysterectomy for benign gynaecological disease comparing NOTES with classical laparoscopy.Methods and analysisAll women aged 18-70 years, regardless of parity, consulting at our practice with an indication for hysterectomy due to benign gynaecological disease will be eligible. After stratification according to uterine size on clinical examination, participants will be randomised to be treated by laparoscopy or by transvaginal NOTES. Participants will be evaluated on day 0, days 1-7 and at 3 and 6 months. The following data will be collected: the proportion of women successfully treated by removing the uterus by the intended approach as randomised; the proportion of women admitted to the inpatient hospital; postoperative pain scores measured twice daily by the women from day 1 to 7; the total amount of analgesics used from day 1 to 7; readmission during the first 6 weeks; presence and intensity of dyspareunia and sexual well-being at baseline, 3 and 6 months (Short Sexual Functioning Scale (SSFS) scale); duration of surgery; postoperative infection or other surgical complications; direct and indirect costs incurred up to 6 weeks following surgery. The primary outcome will be the proportion of women successfully treated by the intended technique; all other outcomes are secondary.Ethics and disseminationThe study was approved on 1 December 2015 by the Ethics Committee of the Imelda Hospital, Bonheiden, Belgium. The first patient was randomised on 17 December 2015. The last participant randomised should be treated before 30 November 2017. The results will be presented in peer-reviewed journals and at scientific meetings within 4 years after starting recruitment.Trial registration numberNCT02631837; Pre-results.
