Comparison of surgical outcomes between robot-assisted and conventional laparoscopic hysterectomy for stage IV endometriosis: A propensity score-matched analysis and review of the literature.

Surgical Outcomes and Learning Curve of Robotic Single-Port Vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (vNOTES) Hysterectomy Using the Da Vinci Single-Port System.

This study aims to assess the surgical outcomes and learning curve of robotic single-port vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (RSP-vNOTES) for hysterectomy in benign gynecologic conditions.

Robot-assisted versus standard laparoscopic approach of total hysterectomy for deep infiltrating endometriosis and adenomyosis (ENDORAS TRIAL): study protocol for a randomised controlled trial.

Endometriosis affects 5-10% of women during reproductive years, with a 20-30% incidence among those with infertility. Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) affects 10-15% of women of childbearing age and 50% of …

Robot-assisted resection of diaphragmatic and hepatorenal recess peritoneal endometriosis: Two cases and a narrative review.

In this report, we describe two cases of diaphragmatic endometriosis with concurrent hepatorenal recess peritoneal involvement managed using robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery with the da Vinci Xi platform. In both patients, …

Pioneering robotic surgery for complex gynecologic conditions: implementation beyond cancer care.

Minimally invasive surgery was introduced to minimize some of the issues associated with open surgery. Its benefits include fewer complications, less pain and blood loss, shorter hospital stays, quicker recovery, …

Cervical endometriosis mimicking cervical adenocarcinoma: A case report.

Cervical endometriosis is a rare benign condition characterized by ectopic endometrial glands and stroma within the cervix. Its clinical and imaging features resemble those of cervical adenocarcinoma, making preoperative diagnosis …

On-demand robotic surgery for hysterectomies: A combination of the best of robotic and laparoscopic approach.

The advantage of robot-assisted hysterectomy over standard laparoscopy remains controversial. Conventional robots offer limited flexibility to the surgeon. The novel, Dexter robotic system™, allows integration and easy switch between the …

The Feasibility and Safety of Robot-Assisted Vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (RA-vNOTES) for Gynecologic Disease: 298-Case Series.

Objectives: To explore the feasibility and surgical outcomes of robot-assisted vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (RA-vNOTES) for women suffering from gynecologic disease. Methods: We performed an observational study reporting …

Robotic multidisciplinary endometriosis surgery with multi-visceral resection: evaluation of short-term feasibility and safety outcomes.

Despite growing interest in robot-assisted surgery, the literature remains limited on the application of robotic surgery for complex endometriosis surgery requiring multidisciplinary input for multi-visceral resection. The aim of the …

Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Application of Fibrin Sealant Patch for Repair of Inferior Vena Cava.

There is a risk of iatrogenic vascular injuries during robotic-assisted laparoscopic excision of diaphragmatic endometriosis. Although studies are limited, the first reported case of a suprahepatic inferior vena cava (IVC) …
