Summary

Objective: To randomly compare hysterectomy by vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (vNOTES) versus laparoscopy uterus in women with benign gynecological pathology.

Study design: Randomized controlled/single center/single-blinded/parallel-group/non-inferiority/efficacy trial.

Study population: All women aged 18 to 70 years regardless of parity with a non-prolapsed uterus and a benign indication for hysterectomy.

Primary study outcome parameters: successful removal of the uterus by the intended technique.

Secondary outcomes: the proportion of women admitted to the in-hospital ward; postoperative pain scores; the total amount of analgesics used; postoperative infection; per- or postoperative complications; hospital readmission rates; duration of the surgical procedure; incidence and intensity of dyspareunia; sexual wellbeing; health-related quality of life; costs.
