Study Objective: To compare operative outcomes of single-port laparoscopic myomectomy (SP-LM) vs conventional laparoscopic myomectomy (CLM), including subjective and objective cosmetic aspects.
Design: Prospective randomized controlled trial (Canadian Task Force classification I).
Setting: University hospital.
Patients: Women with uterine myoma scheduled for laparoscopic myomectomy.
Interventions: Sixty-six women were assigned at random to either the SP-LM or CLM group. Surgical outcomes, including patient and observer scar assessments, were evaluated between the groups according to the intention-to-treat principle.
Measurements and Main Results: There were no significant differences in demographic characteristics and properties of myomectomy between the groups. There also were no differences in surgical outcomes, such as operation time, estimated blood loss, and complications, between the 2 groups. The mean total score of the Observer Scar Assessment Scale was lower in the SP-LM group at 1 week (13.0 +/- 3.2 vs 18.3 +/- 4.8; p < .001) and 8 weeks (9.9 +/- 3.2 vs 14.3 +/- 3.8; p < .001) after discharge. Similar results were obtained for the Patient Scar Assessment Scale at 1 week (11.6 +/- 7.2 vs 18.5 +/- 12.8; p = .024) and 8 weeks (9.5 +/- 6.0 vs 18.8 +/- 9.1; p < .001) after discharge. Postoperative pain and analgesic consumption did not differ between the groups, except in patient-controlled analgesia consumption at 6 hours after operation, which was lower in the SP-LM group (12.7 +/- 6.3 mL vs 16.4 +/- 6.2 mL; p = .039). Operative outcomes were similar in the 2 groups.
Conclusion: SP-LM is associated with more favorable cosmetic outcomes and better patient satisfaction compared with CLM. There were no differences in operative outcomes and complications between the 2 modalities.
