V-NOTES Scarless Surgery (Vaginal Laparoscopy)

V-NOTES (Vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery) is a minimally invasive gynaecological technique performed entirely through the natural vaginal opening, with no incision on the abdomen at all. A camera and slim surgical instruments are passed through the vagina, so the surgeon can reach and treat the uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes from inside without cutting the abdominal wall. Because nothing is opened on the outside of the body, the technique leaves no visible scar and is generally linked with less pain and a quicker recovery than conventional or keyhole abdominal surgery.
