Trial summary

The main reason for this trial is to show the feasibility of removing the ovarien and fallopian tubes through the gaster (transgastric adnexectomy). The background for it is to look for more indications of scarless surgery and we will show that the transgastric adnexectomy can be performed in an easy way. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Feasability of Transgastric Adnexectomy

The main reason for this trial is to show the feasibility of removing the ovarien and fallopian tubes through the gaster (transgastric adnexectomy). The background for it is to look for more indications of scarless surgery and we will show that the transgastric adnexectomy can be performed in an easy way. It is necessary that there is an indication for removing the ovaries and fallopian tubes and if the patient agree we will do it instead of through the belly through the gaster and maybe with an additional inzision in the vagina. All patients with indication for adnexectomy are potential candidates.

Read the detailed description

We will show the feasibility for transgastric adnexectomy in 10 patients. Patients for participating in the study suffer of benign adnexal deseases and there is an indication for removing them for diagnostic, prophylactic or therapeutic reasons. A flexible gastric scope is put transgastric into the abdomen, developing an pneumoperitoneum and removing the adnexes with a monopolar knife. The adnexes then are put out of the abdomen either transvaginally after colpotomy or even transgastric. We already performed an appendectomy in 24 patients and were able to show the feasibility in acute infectios situations.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants with conversion to laparoscopy or laparotomy

    With the trial we want to demonstrate that the transgastric adnexectomy is possible. We will document the number of patients in which we have to change the transgastric to a laparoscopic or laparotomic operation.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. postoperative well being

    Postoperative well being after 6 weeks and after 6 months (standardized questionaire of our hospital)

    Measured: 6 weeks and 6 months

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants with conversion to laparoscopy or laparotomy (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01566955, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
