Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
operating time1 day (Immediately after operation)Total operation time and time required for each procedure are calculated and compared.
Number of lymph nodes retrieved1 week after surgeryThe number of right pelvic lymph nodes and left pelvic lymph nodes were obtained and compared.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
transfusion requirement and amountwithin 1 week after surgeryInvestigate and compare blood transfusion volume and frequency during and after surgery.
postoperative complicationswithin 1 month after surgeryCompare the frequency of fever, urinary retention, anemia, and nausea after surgery.
Postoperative painwithin 1 week after surgeryThe VAS pain score was obtained every 8 hours after surgery and compared.
overall survival34 months after surgeryCompare OS during the follow-up period.
recurrence free survival34 months after surgeryCompare RFS during the follow-up period.
Postoperative analgesics requirementwithin 1 week after surgeryIf the VAS pain score is 3 or more or the patient desires, additional pain medication is administered. The frequency of the pain medication administered in this way is investigated and compared.
