Abstract
Objective To investigate the postoperative analgesic effects of rectus sheath block (RSB) in combination with patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) compared with PCA alone after single-port total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) Methods This randomized, single-blind study enrolled female patients that underwent single-port TLH. The patients were randomized to receive either fentanyl PCA (PCA group) or RSB with the same PCA. The primary outcomes were fentanyl consumption at 8 h postoperatively and visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores, which represented the severity of postoperative pain. Results A total of 36 patients were enrolled in the study: 18 in the PCA group and 18 in the RSB group (two patients were excluded). The primary outcome of fentanyl consumption was significantly lower at 8 h postoperatively in the RSB group than in the PCA group (148 ± 61 µg versus 222 ± 107 µg, respectively). VAS scores were significantly lower at arrival in the post-anaesthesia care unit and at 30 min after arrival in the RSB group compared with the PCA group. There were no significant differences in the nausea/vomiting score and in additional analgesic consumption between the two groups. Conclusions RSB can be used as a multimodal approach for pain control in single-port TLH procedures. Clinical Research Information Service (no. KCT0001461).

Dou Y, Deng L, Tang S, Yao Y, Liang X, Hu Q, Wang Y. Chopstick technique versus cross technique in LESS hysterectomy (CCLEH study): a prospective randomized controlled trial. Trials 2022; 23:702. [PMID: 35987770 PMCID: PMC9392233 DOI: 10.1186/s13063-022-06650-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2022] [Accepted: 08/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The traditional cross technique can be used to complete most laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) procedures, but some relatively precise operations, such as vaginal stump suturing, are challenging. In practice, we have introduced a novel technique named the chopstick technique and applied it to more complex operations, such as cervical cancer operations, and found that it contributes to performing delicate surgery. The efficacy and safety of two different surgical techniques in LESS hysterectomy remain to be validated. Methods Patients who undergo total hysterectomy will be enrolled in this RCT. Stratified randomization will be performed according to uterine size (< 10 cm, 10–15cm, ≥ 15 cm). The participants will be divided into the chopstick technique group or cross technique group to undergo laparoendoscopic single-site total hysterectomy (LESS-TH), and then the perioperative and postoperative data, including the total operation time and other times, transfer rates, estimated blood loss, surgeon fatigue, intraoperative and postoperative complications (within 8 weeks after surgery), health-related quality of life (EQ-5D) scores, postoperative hospital stay, and hospitalization expenses, will be evaluated. The primary outcome is the operating time for total hysterectomy under LESS, and the other outcomes are secondary outcomes. Discussion It is expected that the efficacy of the two techniques in LESS, the chopstick technique vs. the cross technique, will be compared and accumulate safety data on the new techniques will be accumulated.

Ultrasound Evaluation of Pelvic Floor Function after Transumbilical Laparoscopic Single-Site Total Hysterectomy Using Deep Learning Algorithm. COMPUTATIONAL AND MATHEMATICAL METHODS IN MEDICINE 2022; 2022:1116332. [PMID: 35991136 PMCID: PMC9385360 DOI: 10.1155/2022/1116332] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2022] [Revised: 07/06/2022] [Accepted: 07/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
This study was aimed at investigating the ultrasound based on deep learning algorithm to evaluate the rehabilitation effect of transumbilical laparoscopic single-site total hysterectomy on pelvic floor function in patients. The bilinear convolutional neural network (BCNN) structure was constructed in the ultrasound imaging system. The spatial transformer network (STN) was used to preserve image information. Two algorithms, BCNN-R and BCNN-S, were proposed to remove sensitive information after ultrasonic image processing, and then, subtle features of the image were identified and classified. 80 patients undergoing transumbilical laparoscopic single-site total hysterectomy in hospital were randomly divided into a control group and a treatment group, with 40 cases in each group. In the control group, conventional ultrasound was used to assess the image of pelvic floor function in patients undergoing laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS); in the observation group, ultrasound based on deep learning algorithm was used. The postoperative incision pain score, average postoperative anus exhaust time, average hospital stay, and postoperative satisfaction of the two groups were evaluated, respectively. The highest accuracy of constructed network BCNN-S was 88.98%; the highest recall rate of BCNN-R was 88.51%; the highest accuracy rate of BCNN-R was 97.34%. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and exhaust time were similar between the two groups, and the difference had no statistical significance (
). The numerical rating scale (NRS) scores were compared, the observation group had less pain, the difference between the two groups had statistical significance (
), and the postoperative recovery was good. The BCNN based on deep learning can realize the imaging of the uterus by ultrasound and realize the evaluation of pelvic floor function, and the probability of pelvic floor dysfunction is small, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Abstract
Purpose To determine the characteristics of the acute pain after laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH), laparoscopic myomectomy (LM), and laparoscopic adnexectomy (LA) and compare them with each other. Patients and Methods Patients undergoing LAVH, LM, and LA under general anaesthesia at the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University between December 2017 and December 2019 were selected. Their data were collected before, during, and after the surgery. We evaluated the degrees of pain in each group of patients and compared them. Results There were differences in the baseline characteristics of the patients in the LAVH, LM, and LA groups. The severity and incidence of postoperative pain were higher in the LAVH group than in the LM and LA groups, followed by the LM and LA groups. Compared with the LA group, the postoperative pain in the LAVH and LM groups was more complicated. The LA group had the lowest incidence of two or more types of moderate to severe pain. The LAVH and LM groups mainly had visceral pain and low back pain, and the LA group mainly had incisional pain. Shoulder pain had the lowest incidence in the three groups. Conclusion There were different postoperative pain characteristics after the LAVH, LM, and LA, and we should clinically adjust analgesia programs for different gynaecological laparoscopic surgeries.

Abstract
Hysterectomy is the most common gynecological surgical procedure worldwide. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the proportion of hysterectomies performed laparoscopically. Despite attempts to standardize the procedure, there are various approaches available to the surgeon, in terms of number and position of laparoscopic trocars. We have conducted an electronic search on PubMed and, in this article, we present different laparoscopic trocar configurations in order to perform a laparoscopic hysterectomy.

Abstract
Background. Over time, there was an emerging need to shift from laparotomy to minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery, with the success of laparoscopic surgery in the last decade in gyne-oncology. Patients and Methods. This is a prospective randomized controlled trial conducted in Surgical Oncology Unit, Oncology Centre, Mansoura University, in the period between February 2016 and October 2019. Fifty female patients planned for total hysterectomy were randomized into two equal groups; the first underwent conventional laparoscopic hysterectomy (CLH), while the second underwent single-incision laparoscopic hysterectomy (SILH). Results. The mean operative time in the SILH group was 120.00 ± 28.72 minutes vs 103.20 ± 23.04 minutes in the CLH group (P= .027). Median hospital stay in the SILH group was 1 day (range: 1-3 days), the same as that in the CLH group, with no statistical significance (P= .384). Postoperative pain assessment using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) after 6 hours had a median score of 6 (2-8) in the SILH group and 6 (4-7) in the CLH group with significant increase in experienced pain in the SILH group (P= .004), while no significant difference was noted after 12 hours and 24 hours in both SILH and CLH groups. Conclusion. Single-incision laparoscopic hysterectomy (SILH) has similar outcomes when compared to conventional laparoscopic hysterectomy as regard blood loss, hospital stay, conversion to laparotomy, intraoperative and postoperative complications with the disadvantages of longer operative time, increased surgeon's workload, and relatively more postoperative pain.

Abstract
Laparoendoscopic single site surgery (LESS) refers to a spectrum of surgical techniques that allow the performance of laparoscopic surgery through consolidation of all ports into one surgical incision. LESS has emerged as a potentially less invasive alternative to multiport laparoscopy and in the last year in gynecology; hence, this approach has been largely applied for selective indications to perform total hysterectomy. We performed a literature review on single site hysterectomy and described indications and technique, highlighting practical problems, pointers, limitations and recent technical development as robotic assistance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Because minimally invasive hysterectomy has become increasingly performed by gynecologic surgeons, strategies to further improve outcomes have emerged, including innovations in surgical approach. We sought to evaluate the intraoperative and perioperative outcomes and success rates of laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) and vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) hysterectomy in comparison with those of conventional multiport laparoscopic (MPL) hysterectomy. DATA SOURCES A librarian-led search of PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials was performed for case-control, retrospective cohort, and randomized controlled trials through May 2020. METHODS OF STUDY SELECTION The inclusion criterion was publications comparing LESS or vNOTES hysterectomy with conventional MPL hysterectomy for the management of benign or malignant gynecologic disease. Four authors reviewed the abstracts and selected studies for full-text review. The manuscripts were reviewed, separately, by 2 authors for final inclusion and assessment of bias using either the risk-of-bias assessment tool or the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. Any disagreement was resolved by discussion with, or arbitration by, a third reviewer. The titles of 2259 articles were screened, and 108 articles were chosen for abstract screening. Full-text screening resulted in 29 studies eligible for inclusion. TABULATION, INTEGRATION, AND RESULTS Extracted data were placed into REDCap (Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN), and MPL hysterectomy was compared with single-port hysterectomy using meta-analysis models. The outcomes included estimated blood loss (EBL); operative (OP) time; transfusion; length of hospital stay (LOS); conversion to laparotomy; visual analog scale pain scores at 12 hours, 24 hours, and 48 hours; any complications; and 7 subcategories of complications. Random-effects models were built for continuous outcomes and binary outcomes, and the results are reported as standardized mean difference (SMD) or odds ratio (OR) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals, respectively. Meta-analysis could not be performed for vNOTES vs MPL, given that only 3 studies met the eligibility criteria. When LESS and MPL were compared, there was a shorter OP time for MPL (SMD = -0.2577, p <.001) and lower rate of transfusion (OR = 0.1697, p <.001), without a significant difference in EBL (SMD = -0.0243, p = .689). There was a nonsignificant trend toward higher risk of conversion to laparotomy in the MPL group (OR = 2.5871, p = .078). Pain scores were no different 12 or 24 hours postoperatively but were significantly higher at 48 hours postoperatively (SMD = 0.1861, p = .035) in the MPL group. There were no differences in overall or individual complications between the LESS and MPL groups. In the vNOTES comparison, 2 studies demonstrated shorter OP times, with reduced LOS and no difference in complications. CONCLUSION In this meta-analysis, we identified that LESS hysterectomy has comparable and low overall rates of complications and conversion to laparotomy compared with MPL. Notably, the OP time seems longer, and the pain scores at 48 hours may be lower with LESS hysterectomy than with MPL hysterectomy. Limited data suggest that vNOTES hysterectomy may have shorter OP times and improved EBL, transfusion rates, LOS, and pain scores compared with MPL hysterectomy, but further study is needed. There remains a deficit in high-quality data to understand the differences in cosmesis among these surgical approaches. The quality of data for this analysis seems to be low to moderate.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
To extend the benefits of minimally invasive surgery, an increasing enthusiasm has emerged for the laparo-endoscopic single-site surgery (LESS). The idea of LESS is to allow inserting multiple laparoscopic instruments through only one umbilical incision instead of multiple abdominal incisions.
Methods
Sixty patients from three different centers in Germany were randomized (1:1) to conventional laparoscopic hysterectomy (n = 31) or LESS hysterectomy (n = 29). The study focused in particular on the safety and efficacy of both techniques.
Results
The mean operative time was comparable in both groups (68.2 vs 73.6 min., p = 0.409; 95% CI − 18.69–7.12). No differences were seen regarding estimated blood loss (p = 0.915; 95% CI − 21.02–18.88), intra- and postoperative complications (p = 0.944), and wound infection rates (p = 0.944). Patients within the LESS group experienced significantly less pain in the first 24 h postoperatively (p = 0.006); the pain scores at 3, 5, 7 days and 2 months postoperatively were comparable.
Conclusion
LESS hysterectomy is a reliable and safe option in gynecologic surgery. Compared to conventional laparoscopic hysterectomy, LESS surgery demonstrated comparable surgical properties in regard to blood loss, duration of surgery, and intra-/postoperative complications. Notably, patients undergoing LESS hysterectomy experienced some less pain postoperatively.

Abstract
Background and objectivesLaparoscopic hysterectomy is increasingly performed because it is associated with less postoperative pain and earlier recovery as compared with open abdominal hysterectomy. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the available literature regarding the management of pain after laparoscopic hysterectomy.Strategy and selection criteriaRandomized controlled trials evaluating postoperative pain after laparoscopic hysterectomy published between January 1996 and May 2018 were retrieved, according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, from the EMBASE and MEDLINE databases and the Cochrane Register of Controlled Trials. Efficacy and adverse effects of analgesic techniques were assessed.ResultsOf the 281 studies initially identified, 56 were included. Of these, 31 assessed analgesic or anesthetic interventions and 25 assessed surgical interventions. Acetaminophen, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and dexamethasone reduced opioid consumption. Limited evidence hindered recommendations on alpha-2-agonists. Inconsistent evidence was found in the studies investigating pregabalin and transversus abdominis plane block, and no evidence was found for intraperitoneal local anesthetics, port site infiltration, or single-port laparoscopy. Measures to lower peritoneal insufflation pressure or humidify or heat insufflated gas seem to reduce the incidence of shoulder pain, but not abdominal pain.ConclusionsThe baseline analgesic regimen for laparoscopic hysterectomy should include acetaminophen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, dexamethasone, and opioids as rescue analgesics.

Abstract
In this review, we examine the evidence behind nonopioid medication alternatives, peripheral nerve blocks, surgical techniques, and postoperative recovery protocols that can help minimize and effectively treat postoperative pain after minimally invasive gynecologic surgery (MIGS). Because of the depth and heterogeneity of the data, a narrative review was performed of reported interventions. A comprehensive review was performed of PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Database with a focus on randomized controlled trials. In the absence of literature specific to benign gynecology, similar specialty or procedural data were reviewed. A variety of nonopioid medications, surgical techniques, and postoperative recovery protocols have shown significant improvements in postoperative pain after gynecologic surgery. Nonopioid medication options that are beneficial include acetaminophen, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories, and antiepileptics. Incision infiltration with local anesthesia also significantly reduces pain. Surgically, minimally invasive approaches, reducing the laparoscopic trocar size to <10 mm, and evacuating the pneumoperitoneum at the end of the case all have significant benefits. Lastly, enhanced recovery pathways show promise in reducing pain after MIGS. By using a multimodal approach, minimally invasive gynecologic surgeons can help to minimize and manage postoperative pain with less reliance on opioid pain medications.

Laparoendoscopic single-site surgery versus conventional laparoscopy for hysterectomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Arch Gynecol Obstet 2017; 295:1089-1103. [PMID: 28357561 PMCID: PMC5388711 DOI: 10.1007/s00404-017-4323-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2016] [Accepted: 02/06/2017] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Purpose To assess the safety and effectiveness of LESS compared to conventional hysterectomy. Methods The systematic review and meta-analysis was performed according to the MOOSE guideline, and quality of evidence was assessed using GRADE. Different databases were searched up to 4th of August 2016. Randomized controlled trials and cohort studies comparing LESS to the conventional laparoscopic hysterectomy were considered for inclusion. Results Of the 668 unique articles, 23 were found relevant. We investigated safety by analyzing the complication rate and found no significant differences between both groups [OR 0.94 (0.61, 1.44), I2 = 19%]. We assessed effectiveness by analyzing conversion risk, postoperative pain, and patient satisfaction. For conversion rates to laparotomy, no differences were identified [OR 1.60 (0.40, 6.38), I2 = 45%]. In 3.5% of the cases in the LESS group, an additional port was needed during LESS. For postoperative pain scores and patient satisfaction, some of the included studies reported favorable results for LESS, but the clinical relevance was non-significant. Concerning secondary outcomes, only a difference in operative time was found in favor of the conventional group [MD 11.3 min (5.45–17.17), I2 = 89%]. The quality of evidence for our primary outcomes was low or very low due to the study designs and lack of power for the specified outcomes. Therefore, caution is urged when interpreting the results. Conclusion The single-port technique for benign hysterectomy is feasible, safe, and equally effective compared to the conventional technique. No clinically relevant advantages were identified, and as no data on cost effectiveness are available, there are currently not enough valid arguments to broadly implement LESS for hysterectomy.

Abstract
Within the last 10 years there have been significant advances in minimal-access surgery. Although no emerging technology has demonstrated improved outcomes or fewer complications than standard laparoscopy, the introduction of the robotic surgical platform has significantly lowered abdominal hysterectomy rates. While operative time and cost were higher in robotic-assisted procedures when the technology was first introduced, newer studies demonstrate equivalent or improved robotic surgical efficiency with increased experience. Single-port hysterectomy has not improved postoperative pain or subjective cosmetic results. Emerging platforms with flexible, articulating instruments may increase the uptake of single-port procedures including natural orifice transluminal endoscopic cases.

[PMID: 27590569 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmig.2016.08.826] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2016] [Revised: 08/15/2016] [Accepted: 08/22/2016] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Numerous studies have compared the surgical outcomes of single-port laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) and conventional multiport LH, but the results are conflicting. The aim of this meta-analysis was to compare the safety and efficacy of single-port LH and multiport LH for benign gynecologic conditions based on published reports. PubMed, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Embase were searched for relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Outcome measures included intraoperative and postoperative complication rates, postoperative pain, conversion rate, operative time, estimated blood loss (EBL), and length of hospital stay. Pooled outcome measures (risk ratio [RR] and weighted mean difference [WMD]) were pooled with either a fixed-effects model or a random-effects model. Six RCTs encompassing 624 patients were included. There were no significant differences between single-port LH and multiport LH in terms of intraoperative complication rate (RR, 1.00; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.14-7.05; p = .00), postoperative complication rate (RR, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.63-1.44; p = .82), postoperative pain (WMD, -0.42; 95% CI, -0.99 to 0.15; p = .15), conversion rate (p = .11), EBL (p = .51), or length of hospital stay (p = .27). However, single-port LH was associated with an average of 13.13 minutes longer operative time than multiport LH (p = .02). Our findings show that single-port LH is a safe and effective technique for benign gynecologic conditions, although it may require a longer operative time than multiport LH. Further large, prospective RCTs with long-term follow-up are needed to determine whether single-port LH really offers such benefits as better cosmetic outcome over multiport LH.
