Low-Residue Diet Versus Rectal Enema Before Laparoscopic Endometrial Cancer Surgery: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare a standardized 3-day bowel preparation protocol with a rectal enema before laparoscopic surgery for endometrial cancer. The study will evaluate whether the dietary bowel preparation protocol can be used instead of a rectal enema while maintaining an adequate surgical view during surgery.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Can the dietary bowel preparation protocol provide surgical exposure comparable to a rectal enema? * Can the dietary bowel preparation protocol reduce the minimum Trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum pressure required to obtain an adequate surgical view? * Does either bowel preparation method cause more discomfort or side effects before surgery?
Researchers will compare a standardized 3-day bowel preparation protocol with a rectal enema before surgery.
Participants will:
* Be randomly assigned to receive either a standardized 3-day bowel preparation protocol or a rectal enema before surgery. * Undergo standard laparoscopic surgery for endometrial cancer. * Have surgical exposure, the minimum Trendelenburg position, the minimum pneumoperitoneum pressure, operative outcomes, postoperative recovery, and bowel preparation-related symptoms and discomfort assessed as part of routine clinical care.
Inclusion: Female participants aged 18 to 90 years; Scheduled to undergo elective laparoscopic surgery for endometrial cancer; Willing and able to provide written informed consent.
Exclusion: Planned open (abdominal) surgery; Known allergy or contraindication to sodium phosphate rectal enema; Age over 90 years; Refusal or inability to provide written informed consent.
