Study Objective: To evaluate the effect of concomitant hysterectomy on perioperative outcomes in patients who underwent obliterative pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgery.
Material And Methods: This retrospective study included 95 consecutive patients with no prior hysterectomy who underwent obliterative surgery for POP between February 2015 and April 2021. Perioperative outcomes of colpocleisis without hysterectomy (C) and colpocleisis with hysterectomy (CH) were compared.

Aims: This study aims to describe our transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) technique for ectopic pregnancy that can be performed using conventional laparoscopic equipment with the addition of a self-constructed pessary port and to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and outcomes of the technique.
Methods: This is a retrospective study evaluating outcomes of patients who underwent vNOTES for ectopic pregnancy (n = 21) between August 2019 and April 2021.
Results: Twenty-one patients underwent vNOTES as intended without any intraoperative complications.

Study Objective: To describe a vaginal approach combining vaginal hysterectomy (VH) with transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BSO) for hysterectomy in transgender men and to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and surgical outcomes of this approach in comparison with laparoscopy.
Material And Methods: Retrospective cohort study comparing outcomes of the vaginal approach (n = 45) and laparoscopy (n = 45) in transgender men undergoing hysterectomy between May 2017 and June 2020.
Results: There was one intraoperative complication (bladder injury) in the laparoscopy group, which was the reason for the only conversion from the initial surgical approach.
