Hysterectomy using Vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) compared with classic laparoscopic hysterectomy: a new advantageous approach? A systematic review on surgical outcomes
Introduction: Minimally invasive surgery aims to reduce surgical trauma and postoperative morbidity. Natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) is a safe and valid surgical option for hysterectomy. The present systematic review aims to compare hysterectomy by transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) with laparoscopic hysterectomy in terms of efficacy, surgical outcomes, complications, and cost. Materials and methods: This systematic review was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. It includes randomized controlled trials, controlled clinical trials, prospective or retrospec…
Diagnosis of Cervical Cancer and Pre-Cancerous Lesions by Artificial Intelligence: A Systematic Review
Objective: The likelihood of timely treatment for cervical cancer increases with timely detection of abnormal cervical cells. Automated methods of detecting abnormal cervical cells were established because manual identification requires skilled pathologists and is time consuming and prone to error. The purpose of this systematic review is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies for the prediction, screening, and diagnosis of cervical cancer and pre-cancerous lesions. Materials and Methods: Comprehensive searches were performed on three databases: Medline, Web of Science Core Collection (Indexes = SCI-EXPANDED, SSCI, A & HCI Timespan) and Scopu…
