Abstract

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to elucidate the feasibility of gasless laparoscopically assisted myomectomy (LAM) using a wound retraction system. This method treats symptomatic uterine myomas by combining laparoscopy with a mini‐laparotomy to enucleate myoma nodules and to close the uterine myometrium.
