Does BMI Influence Pain Follow vNOTE Surgery

Completed

Conditions studied: Obese, Surgery, Pain, Postoperative

In brief

Overweight and obesity are increasing dramatically worldwide and contribute substantially to the burden of morbidity and mortality. Obesity was considered in the past a relative contraindication for abdominal and pelvic laparoscopy surgeries due to the morbidity that is associated with it. Vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (vNOTES) is an emerging field in minimally invasive surgery. By incorporating the advantages of endoscopic surgery, the vNOTES approach avoids abdominal wall wounds and trocar-related complications, including reducing post operation pain.
