| Variable | CR group mean ± SD |
MR group mean ± SD |
p-value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cervical dilatation time, minutess | 2.6 ± 1.1 | 1.4 ± 1.0 | < 0.001 |
| Operation time, minutess | 17.0 ± 2.5 | 16.1 ± 2.3 | 0.140 |
| Postoperative pain score at 30 minutes | 8.5 ± 0.5 | 7.8 ± 0.7 | < 0.001 |
| Postoperative pain score at 2 hours | 4.3 ± 0.7 | 4.0 ± 0.6 | 0.110 |
| Complications | 4 (3 CL, 1 UP) | 0 | 0.112* |
CL: cervical laceration; UP: uterine perforation; CR: conventional resectoscope; MR: mini-resectoscope; SD: standard deviation. *p-value based on Fisher’s exact test. Other p-values were based on Student’s t-independent test.
