Abstract
vNOTES or vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic surgery is a new paradigm shift in gynaecological surgery. A first paradigm shift from conventional surgery into laparoscopic surgery was firstly observed in the 1980s and 1990s. vNOTES may represent a shift from 90° to parallel surgery. Almost all benign gynaecological operations can be performed via vNOTES. The chapter presents the technique of vNOTES along with results of various benign and mainly malignant cases. In parallel, the clinical approach of endometrial cancer is widely discussed.
