    Introduction This retrospective single-center study based on prospectively collected data aimed to evaluate changes in operative performance during the initial experience with vaginal myomectomy. Methods Sixty consecutive patients who underwent VM between January 2021 and December 2023 were included. Demographic features, FIGO-classified myoma characteristics, operative variables, and postoperative outcomes were recorded prospectively. To assess the LC, patients were divided chronologically into four groups of 15 cases. The primary objective was to evaluate changes in operative performance across consecutive cases. Operative time, estimated blood loss, hematocrit decrease, and hospitalization duration were used as measurable indicators of surgical progression, while the occurrence of major complications was assessed as a safety outcome. Groups were compared in terms of preoperative characteristics, intraoperative parameters, and postoperative outcomes. Results The mean age and BMI of the patients were 38.1 years and 28.2 kg/m², respectively. Myoma number, diameter, and FIGO-based localization were similar across all groups (p > 0.05). No major intraoperative or postoperative complications occurred. Hematocrit drop and estimated blood loss were significantly higher in the first 15 cases compared to subsequent groups (p = 0.033 and p = 0.005). Operative time significantly decreased after the first 30 cases (p = 0.001), while length of hospital stay significantly shortened after the first 15 cases (p = 0.001). Transfusion rates did not differ between groups (p = 0.923). Conclusion The findings suggest that improvements in bleeding parameters and hospitalization duration became apparent after approximately 15 procedures, whereas operative efficiency improved and appeared to stabilize after approximately 30–34 procedures. These observations should be interpreted within the context of the initial experience of an experienced vaginal surgeon rather than as universally applicable thresholds.

    Postoperative pain after vNOTES versus laparoscopic hysterectomy: A procedure-specific comparative study
    (Turkish Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2026) Şahin, Turan; Şahin, Eda Adeviye; Perkyürek, Buse Sahra; Güzeltaş, Gökan; Tekin, Arzu Bilge; Gök, Koray; Şahin, Hanifi
    Objective: Vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) is associated with lower postoperative pain, reduced analgesic requirements, and faster early postoperative recovery compared with laparoscopy in patients undergoing hysterectomy for benign indications. To compare postoperative pain and early recovery outcomes between vNOTES and conventional laparoscopy in patients undergoing hysterectomy for benign gynecologic indications. Materials and Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study included 192 patients who underwent hysterectomy between March 2021 and September 2025. Patients were grouped according to surgical approach (vNOTES vs. laparoscopy). Postoperative pain was assessed using the visual analog scale at 6 and 24 hours. Primary outcomes were pain intensity and the requirement for additional analgesia. Secondary outcomes included operative time, change in hemoglobin, time to first flatus, and length of hospital stay. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify predictors of analgesic requirement. Results: Of 192 patients, 75 (39.1%) underwent laparoscopy and 117 (60.9%) underwent vNOTES. Baseline characteristics were similar between groups. The vNOTES group had significantly lower pain scores at 6 and 24 hours (p=0.001) and a reduced need for additional analgesia (23.9% vs. 60.0%, p=0.001). Operative time was shorter and recovery outcomes, including time to first flatus and length of hospital stay, were significantly improved in the vNOTES group (p=0.001). Surgical approach, uterine weight, and operative time were independent predictors of analgesic requirement. Conclusion: In this retrospective cohort study, vNOTES was associated with lower postoperative pain scores, reduced analgesic requirement, and earlier recovery than conventional laparoscopy. These findings should be confirmed in prospective randomized studies.

    Uterus-preserving laparoscopic lateral suspension provides durable anatomical and functional success in apical pelvic organ prolapse: Long-term results from a single-center study
    (Via Medica, 2026) Şahin, Turan; Tekin, Arzu Bilge; Şahin, Hanifi; Tuğ, Niyazi; Perkyürek, Şahin; Doğan, İlker Orhan
    Objectives: To evaluate the long-term anatomical, functional, and patient-reported outcomes of uterus-preserving laparoscopic lateral suspension (LLS) in women with apical pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Material and methods: This retrospective cohort study included 98 women with symptomatic apical POP who underwent uterus-preserving LLS between January 2018 and December 2021 at a single tertiary center. All patients had at least 24 months of follow-up (mean: 40.6 ± 10.8 months). Anatomical outcomes were assessed using the POP-Q system, functional outcomes with POP-SS, P-QOL, M-ISI, and FSFI, and patient satisfaction with the PGI-I scale. The primary endpoint was composite clinical success, defined as anatomical success (POP-Q stage 0–1 in all compartments), absence of reoperation, and a positive PGI-I response. Results: The mean age was 48.1 ± 10.5 years, mean BMI was 27.0 ± 3.5 kg/m², and 42.9% were postmenopausal. Concomitant procedures were performed in 44.9% of cases. At long-term follow-up, significant improvements were observed in all POP-Q points (Ba from 0.6 to –3.4 cm, C from 0.3 to –2.5 cm, and Bp from –1.7 to –3.6 cm; all p < 0.001). POP-SS, P-QOL, and M-ISI scores improved markedly (all p < 0.001). FSFI showed significant improvement in the pain domain. Composite clinical success was achieved in 93.9% of patients, with anatomical success rates of 98.0% (apical), 98.0% (anterior), and 96.9% (posterior). Patient satisfaction was high, with 96.9% reporting “very much better” or “much better” on PGI-I. Reoperation was required in 3.1% of cases. Intraoperative complications included bladder injury (2.0%) and bleeding requiring transfusion (1.0%). Late complications were rare, with mesh exposure in 2.0% and dyspareunia in 3.1%. Conclusions: Uterus-preserving LLS provides durable long-term anatomical and functional success, high patient satisfaction, and low complication rates, representing a safe and effective alternative to sacrocolpopexy in the surgical management of apical POP.
