About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Obstetric Outcomes After Transvaginal Specimen Extraction in Gynecological Laparoscopy

One of the most important downsides of endoscopic surgery is the need to remove surgical specimens of different sizes through very small incisions. This step should ensure the complete retrieval of the surgical specimen with concomitant preservation of its integrity (if possible) in order to avoid intraabdominal contamination of potentially infected or malignant tissues. Possibilities for specimen extraction during laparoscopy include minilaparotomy, enlargement of an ancillary port, transumbilical extraction, and transvaginal extraction through posterior colpotomy.

Although recent evidence has already suggested that transvaginal extraction through posterior colpotomy is a safe and feasible option, to date there are no published data about obstetric outcomes after this procedure.

For this reason, the current study aims to evaluate obstetric outcomes between women that underwent transvaginal specimen extraction through posterior colpotomy and women who did not.
