Key clinical point: Single-port laparoscopic myomectomy (LM) for treatment of uterine fibroids (UF) showed characteristics of lesser trauma, faster recovery, and higher patient satisfaction than the traditional 3-port LM.
Major finding: The specimen removal time, postoperative ambulation time, first exhaust time after surgery, and postoperative hospital stay were lower for single-port vs traditional 3-port LM (all P < .05). After 30 days of operation, the abdominal scar satisfaction score was higher in the single-port vs 3-port LM group (4.17 vs 3.47; P = .00). Intraoperative blood loss was similar in both groups (P > .05).
Study details: Findings are from a retrospective review of 120 patients with UFs who underwent LM. Overall, 60 patients underwent single-port LM, and the remaining 60 were treated with traditional 3-port LM.
Disclosures: This study was funded by the Liaoning Provincial Department of Science and Technology. The authors declared no conflict of interests.
