Long-term follow up was performed over the phone to assess quality of life with 2 widely used health-related quality of life (HRQoL) surveys including RAND-36 Health Item Survey (Version 1.0),<sup>1</sup> and the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI).<sup>2</sup>.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Ten women underwent a laparoscopic-assisted transvaginal cholecystectomy (TVC) with 7 available for long-term follow-up. The average age was 28.9 years (20-37) and the indications for surgery included symptomatic cholelithiasis (9) and biliary dyskinesia (1). The mean operative time was 129 mins (95-180), and median blood loss was 34 ml (5-400). There were no conversions and the average length of stay was 9.98 hours (2.4-28.8). Pain (analogue scale 1-10) on postoperative day three was minimal (mean 2.3) and was limited to the infraumbilical incision. On average patients returned to work by postoperative day six and resumed normal daily activities at seven days. Immediate postoperative complications included one incident of postoperative urinary retention requiring bladder catheterization. One intra-operative cholangiogram was successfully performed due to elevated preoperative liver enzymes without significant findings. Long-term complications included one asymptomatic incisional hernia repair at the infraumbilical port site. The RAND-36 survey demonstrated an average physical and mental health summary score of 82.2 and 63.7 with an average general health score of 63.6. The average FSFI total score was 21.8.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>TVC is safe and effective. Implementation may improve operational readiness by returning service members to normal activities more expeditiously than conventional laparoscopy.</p>","PeriodicalId":17679,"journal":{"name":"JSLS : Journal of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10984372/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140336178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
