## Key Facts

- **Status:** COMPLETED
- **Phase:** NA
- **Study Type:** INTERVENTIONAL
- **Target Enrollment:** 26
- **Lead Sponsor:** Inonu University
- **Conditions:** Surgical Incision
- **Start Date:** 2013-01-01

## Brief Summary

Laparoscopic total colectomy (LTC) is an accepted surgical procedure for several colonic pathologies. Additionally, specimen extraction through the natural orifices is an emerging method when combined with the totally laparoscopic procedures. Our observations on natural orifice surgery was promising . In our daily surgical practice, investigators prefer the intracorporeal anastomosis and this study was conducted to compare the specimen extraction sites after LTC. Here investigators aimed to compare the results of conventional and natural orifice specimen extractions (NOSE) after totally LTCs.

## Detailed Description

compare the patient-selected NOSE method and conventional method in laparoscopic total colon surgery

## Eligibility

- **Minimum age:** 18 Years
- **Sex:** ALL
- **Healthy Volunteers:** No

```
Inclusion Criteria:

* laparoscopic total colectomy patients

Exclusion Criteria:

* no
```

## Arms

- **natural orifice** (EXPERIMENTAL) — Patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery and removed the specimen from the natural orifice will be gathered. demographic data and perioperative results will be compiled
- **conventional** (NO_INTERVENTION) — patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery and removed specimen with conventional will be gathered. demographic data and perioperative results will be compiled. (conventional extraction is suprapubic or median incision)

## Interventions

- **natural orifice** (PROCEDURE) — laparoscopic total colon surgery and patients who are removed from the natural orifice and conventional will gather

## Primary Outcomes

- **Visual Analog Score** _(time frame: 240 days)_ — Visual Analog Score for pain (1-10 score)

## Locations (1)

- Inonu University, Malatya, Turkey (Türkiye)
