VNOTES (Vaginal Natural Orifices Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery) myomectomy through anterior cul-de-sac approach on the bicornuate uterus.

VNOTES is a novel technique that allows access to the pelvic-abdominal cavity through the vagina. Myomectomy can be performed by vNOTES even through anterior cul-de-sac incision and for selected cases of uterine malformation. Here we present a 29-years-old patient with a complaint about pelvic discomfort. Pelvic examination revealed an 8 cm palpable mass in the right iliac region. The magnetic resonance exam revealed a bicornuate uterus attached to a subserosal fibroid that was 7.7 × 6.6 × 6.0 cm in size. The fibroid was positioned anteriorly to the uterus so the vNOTES approach was indicated through the anterior cul-de-sac. The surgery was performed without any complication and the patient was discharged the next day. The final pathological analysis confirmed uterine leiomyoma and the patient had a good postoperative evaluation. In Conclusion, vNOTES myomectomy may be feasible for selected patients even with uterine malformation.
