ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To investigate difference in the extraction of specimens between via the middle part incision of posterior vagina and via morcellation.METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed in 70 cases of laparoscopic hystero myomectomy admitted to the gynecological ward from June 2017 to June 2018 in Shenyang Women and Children's Hospital;tissue extraction was accomplished in a specimen retrieval bag via middle part incision of posterior vagina in 36 cases,while 34 cases through morcellation.RESULTS: All the 70 patients with uterine fibroids underwent laparoscopic surgery successfully.The specimen was extracted via middle part incision of posterior vagina or through morcelation.The retrieval bags were not damaged and no complications occurred.The operation time and blood loss were compared between the two groups,and there was no significant difference[(106.58±10.24)min vs.(104.32±10.58)min,(88.89±41.60)mL vs.(88.82±46.76)mL,P>0.05].The vaginal incision healed well in follow-up.CONCLUSION: The middle part incision of posterior vagina took great advantage of the nature path.The way of the extraction is an efficacious and minimally morbid technique for removing the intact entrapped specimen after laparoscopic myomectomy.It is feasible and easy to grasp.
