Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Object of the study is the evaluation of the use of a rigid laparoscope for the diagnosis and therapy of lesions of the female genital tract as a substitution or a complementary method to colposcopy with the development of new standards for a tissue sparing therapy Use of existing laparoscopic instruments, which allow a better quality level in the diagnosis and therapy than the current routine.

Development of new optics and instruments, which allow a tissue sparing approach Pre and postoperative measurement of the cervical volume, to be sure that the tissue removal is kept to a minimum level Development of qualitaty parameters for the most tissue respecting operations of the uterine cervix Prospective evaluation of the influence of tissue sparing surgery on future pregnancies

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Colposcopy

a Carl Zeiss colposcope with a magnification power from 4x to 20x, with green filter.

Device: Colposcopy
