Does 3D Laparoscopy Improve Vaginal Cuff Suture Time?

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Uterine Fibroids, Abnormal Uterine Bleeding, Pelvic Pain, Adenomyosis

In brief

The objective aim is to evaluate whether the use of 3D laparoscopy facilitates the vaginal cuff closure of the vaginal cuff during a total laparoscopic hysterectomy among novice laparoscopists (PGY 2-4, Fellow). This is a randomized single blinded controlled trial comparing the difference in 2D vs. 3D in regards to vaginal cuff closure time stratified by residents and fellows. Patients will undergo a total laparoscopic hysterectomy and will be randomized to either 2D versus 3D.
