MiniLap Vs Standard Laparoscopy in Prophylactic Bilateral Salpingo-oophorectomy in BRCA-Mutated Patients
Sponsor: Azienda Sanitaria-Universitaria Integrata di Udine
Summary
The study hypothesis is that surgical treatment performed with MiniLap results in reduced postoperative pain in a population of patients undergoing prophylactic laparoscopic adnexal surgery. The primary objectives are to assess differences in operative duration, intraoperative blood loss, and postoperative complications in patients undergoing bilateral laparoscopic adnexectomy performed with standard laparoscopy versus MiniLap. The secondary objectives of this study are to compare postoperative pain and patient satisfaction with aesthetic outcomes. Patients with BRCA 1/2 mutations undergoing prophylactic surgery will be assigned to either MiniLap or standard laparoscopic treatment based on randomization. Subsequently, the necessary study data will be collected using the hospital's electronic management system and medical records.

Bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy - S-LPS
In standard laparoscopy (S-LPS), the initial laparoscopic access was performed at the umbilical level using open laparoscopy (Hasson technique). The subsequent accesses were carried out in the right and left iliac fossa. In the S-LPS, these accesses are performed using a 5mm trocars. Finally, a 5mm ancillary trocar was placed in the suprapubic region to use instruments such as bipolar forceps, irrigators, and scissors. The subsequent surgical steps were identical for both techniques.
Bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy - PSS
In the MiniLap® Percutaneous Surgical System (PSS), the initial laparoscopic access was performed at the umbilical level using open laparoscopy (Hasson technique). The subsequent two accesses were carried out in the right and left iliac fossa. These latter accesses are directly performed using MiniLap® with a 2.4mm incision. Finally, a 5mm ancillary trocar was placed in the suprapubic region to use instruments such as bipolar forceps, irrigators, and scissors. The subsequent surgical steps were identical for both techniques.
