In Laparoscopic Myomectomy, Does a Caseload of 100 Patients During the Learning Curve Produce a Significant Improvement in Performance Measures?

Purpose Laparoscopic myomectomy (LM) offers considerable advantages over open myomectomy; however, LM is technically complex and associated with a steep learning curve. Few studies have evaluated the effect of the learning curve, and the limitations of most of these studies were the number of women included and the multiplicity of surgeons undertaking the procedure. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of a caseload of 100 patients during the learning curve of a single experienced surgeon performing LM.
