Abstract
Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES), transvaginal cholecystectomy in particular, is a new development in minimally invasive surgery. The relatively limited studies conducted have shown good short-term results. The benefits, in terms of cosmetic results and pain, should be weighed against the potential risks of single-incision laparoscopy (such as bile duct injury and inability to close the incision) by evaluation during randomized controlled trials. The female population's perception of transvaginal NOTES for cholecystectomy is still under discussion
