Brief summary
This study aimed to compare the surgical outcomes of Vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (vNOTES) and conventional vaginal hysterectomy (VH) for benign gynecological conditions. A prospective analysis will conducted at a tertiary hospital from January 2025 to February 2025. Patients aged 40-80 who underwent hysterectomy for benign indications will included. Outcomes will assessed included surgical outcomes, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain scores, and complication rates.

| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| the duration of surgery | The time from the beginning to the end of the operation | İnterval from initial incision to the completion of vaginal cuff closure (minute) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Hospitalization time | through study completion, an average of 1 month | Time from surgery to discharge (hours) |
| VAS score | postoperative 6th and 24 th hour | Visual Analog Score for pain at postoperative 6th and 24 th hour (0-10) |
| Uterin volume | through study completion, an average of 1 month | Uterine volume is quantified in milimeters based on measurement of pathological specimens, calculate using the formula (Uterine volume (ml)= (anterior-posterior diameter)\* (sagital diameter) \* (transverse diameter) \* 0,0005236 |
