N2 - Study Objective. To evaluate the safety and efficacy of combined laparoscopic and vaginal approach in dealing with uterine myomas. Design. Retrospective case study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2). Setting. Tertiary care major teaching hospital. Patients. Thirty-one women with symptomatic fundal and/or posterior wall uterine myomas. Intervention. Laparoscopic-assisted vaginal myomectomy performed by one of the authors from July 1996 to December 1998. Measurements and Main Results. Mean ± SD operating time, blood loss, and length of hospital stay were 79.19 ± 18.31 minutes, 150.00 ± 103.28 ml, and 3.10 ± 0.75 days, respectively. No patients developed serious complications, and only two minor complications occurred. Conclusion. After laparoscopic inspection and location of uterine myomas, dealing with posterior and fundal uterine myomas by the vaginal route makes hemostasis and uterine repair easier than by purely laparoscopic approach.
