The objective was to assess outcomes of robotic-assisted transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (RA-vNOTES) performed for hysterectomy and endometriosis excision. We conducted a retrospective case series across two hospitals …
To examine the association between operative time and short-term postoperative complications in patients undergoing surgery for stage III-IV endometriosis.
Background/Objectives: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory systemic disease that commonly affects bowel structures, including the appendix, where it may mimic or coexist with chronic appendicitis. Visual inspection alone often fails …
Background: Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease affecting up to 10% of women of reproductive age. It substantially impacts quality of life (QoL) through pelvic pain, infertility, and psychological …
To evaluate whether patient age influences the complexity of the surgical approach for bowel endometriosis, including the technique performed and the route of specimen extraction. Methods: Retrospective, multicenter observational study, …
Minimally invasive gynecologic surgery (MIGS) has changed gynecologic care over the past thirty years by introducing techniques like multiport laparoscopy, robotic-assisted laparoscopy, and single-site surgery. MIGS offers advantages like reduced …
This study aims to retrospectively evaluate the surgical outcomes of total hysterectomy performed via Vaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (vNOTES) compared to laparoscopic hysterectomy (LAP) in treating benign gynecologic …
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, …
The AAGL 2021 classification assesses intraoperative surgical complexity using a four-stage scale based on lesion size and location. Despite its potential utility, no data currently assess its correlation with perioperative …
To develop and validate models to predict which endometriosis patients are likely to experience pain reduction following therapeutic laparoscopy using intraoperative findings and patient characteristics.
