To assess the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic myomectomy without coagulation for uterine corpus leiomyoma between 4 and 9 cm in diameter with types 2-5. A total of 109 patients with uterine corpus myoma, single or multiple, between 4 and 9 cm in diameter with types from 2 to 5 were included who underwent laparoscopic myomectomy without using any unipolar or bipolar coagulation. Surgery time, intraoperative blood loss, hemoglobin decline on the first day after surgery and average days of post-operative hospitalization were recorded. The mean operative time was 70 ± 25 min (range 35-140 min). Mean blood loss during operation was 138 ml (range 20-400 ml), mean hemoglobin decline on the first day after surgery was 1.5 ± 0.75 g/dl (range 0-3.2 g/dl), and mean hospitalization time was 3.2 days (range 2-6 days). No patient required a blood transfusion. There were no major post-operative complications. Laparoscopic myomectomy without coagulation is feasible and safe for uterine corpus leiomyoma between 4 and 9 cm in diameter with types 2-5.
