Abstract
Study ObjectiveThe aim was to investigate the outcome of vaginal delivery of full-term pregnancies in patients after transvaginal-natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) treatment for gynecological disorders.DesignA case series report.SettingA medical university hospital.Patients12 cases of successful delivery after transvaginal-natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery.InterventionsLong-term follow-up of patients with fertility needs after transvaginal-natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery.Measurements and Main ResultsFrom 2018 to 2021, 163 cases of gynecological diseases were treated by vNOTES. One hundred forty-seven patients were followed up, with a follow-up rate of 90.1%. The average follow-up time was 28 (15–47) months, including 66 cases with fertility requirements. Among these 66 patients, 12 patients successfully got pregnant and completed delivery, including 10 cases of vaginal delivery and 2 cases of cesarean section, with no adverse pregnancy outcomes associated with vNOTES arising.ConclusionVaginal delivery of a full-term pregnancy after transvaginal-natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery appears to be safe and feasible and would not be one of the bases for elective cesarean delivery.
