Written report characteristics

Methods

Unblinded unmarried‐centre randomised controlled trial, conducted at the Gynecology and Homo Reproduction Physiopathology of Sant'Orsola‐Malpighi University Hospital of Bologna, Bologna, Italy

Participants

Premenopausal women aged betwixt 18 and 50 years, with an ultrasonographic diagnosis of at to the lowest degree one myoma measuring betwixt four cm and 10 cm in mean diameter, and presenting a heavy menstrual flow or infertility as indications to laparoscopic myomectomy.

Interventions

Sample size: 72 women (34 in the intervention group and 38 in the command group)

In the command group, intra‐abdominal uncontained power morcellation was performed with the reusable power morcellator Rotocut G1, Storz.

In the intervention grouping (extracorporeal in‐handbag manual morcellation), each enucleated myoma was placed within a specimen retrieval bag (Endo Catch 2 Motorcar Suture x‐mm or fifteen‐mm, Covidien). The edges around the purse's opening were then pulled out through the lower central x‐mm trocar incision, previously enlarged to 20 mm, forth with the abdominal fascia. The coarse was tightly grasped with Schroeder tenaculum and manual morcellation was performed with scalpel or scissors, while the first assistant carefully pulled on the edges of the bag to motion it abroad from the blade, avoiding bag damage. At the end of morcellation, the endoscopic bag was retrieved on the edges of the purse to move it abroad from the blade, fugitive bag damage, retrieved through the port incision, and filled with water to identify eventual bag disruptions.

Outcomes

The primary event was the comparison of morcellation operative times.

Study characteristics

Methods

Unblinded single‐center randomised controlled trial, conducted at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University ''Magna Graecia'' of Catanzaro, Catanzaro, Italy

Participants

Sample size: 104 women (53 in the intervention group and 51 in the control group)

Premenopausal women with heavy menstrual bleeding or women already diagnosed with fibroids from referral sources and undergoing a laparoscopic myomectomy. Inclusion criteria were the following: age between eighteen and xl years, torso mass alphabetize (BMI) xviii kg/one thousand² to xl kg/m², heavy menstrual bleeding, and the presence of at least one myoma measuring 4 cm or more in diameter (simply no myoma measuring >ten cm, according to local practice on eligibility for laparoscopy).

Interventions

In the intervention group (extracorporeal in‐bag transmission morcellation), each enucleated myoma was placed inside a rip‐stop nylon specimen purse (Endo Catch Gold Auto Suture 10‐mm or 15‐mm, Covidien), which could hold 220 mL or 1000 mL according to the size chosen. The central lower 10‐mm trocar incision was increased to xxx mm, and a 65‐mm reusable sterile pessary was placed inside the bag, between the myoma and pelvic wall, to create a barrier between the morcellated portion of the myoma and the bag. In this way, the pessary protected the purse from the coring rotational movements of either the pocketknife or the scissors and immune a more manageable coring. After exteriorisation of the fibroid's surface with the help of Alexis retractors, information technology was grasped with Schroeder tenaculum, double tooth, or Backhaus towel forceps and subjected to gradual morcellation with scalpel or pair of scissors by cautious C‐coring. Fibroid adequate traction was allowed by using different instruments, depending on the myoma consistency.

In the control grouping, intracorporeal un‐independent morcellation using a power morcellator (Rotocut G1, Storz) was performed.

Outcomes

The chief outcome was the comparison of morcellation operative times.

Moderate certainty. We are moderately confident in the outcome estimate; the truthful event is probable to be shut to the estimate of the issue, but there is a possibility that it is substantially different.
Low certainty. Our confidence in the issue estimate is limited; the true effect may be essentially different from the estimate of the issue.
