Summary

This study aims to prospectively evaluate a laparoscopic-assisted transvaginal approach for colonic resection in adult women that eliminates the need for an abdominal incision to remove surgical specimens. It is hypothesized that this LANOS technique will improve patient outcomes such as postoperative surgical site infection (SSI) rates, thereby improving patient satisfaction and also reducing hospital length-of-stay and cost.

Conditions

PROCEDURE

Laparoscopic-Assisted Natural Orifice Surgery
