Bladder Endometriosis Resolved by Robotic-Assisted Partial Cystectomy.

This is a case report of a 31-year-old G1P1 with deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) of the bladder. She presented with bladder spasms, dysuria, and urinary frequency that worsened during her …

Improving efficiency in robotic-assisted surgery: a practical guide for surgeons.

The integration of robotic systems into minimally invasive surgery offers significant advantages, including enhanced precision, reduced invasiveness, and improved patient outcomes. However, sustaining these benefits requires optimization of operational efficiency …

Preliminary Experience of Robotic Endometriosis From a Tertiary Care Center in India: The Learning Curve.

Background Endometriosis often requires surgery, especially in deep-infiltrating cases unresponsive to medical therapy. This study presents our institutional experience with robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) for endometriosis in Indian patients. Methodology This …

Robotic Hysterectomy for Benign Gynecology: Evidence and Insights.

Hysterectomy is the regimen of choice for benign gynecologic diseases, including uterine myoma, adenomyosis, endometriosis, and genital prolapse. Surgeons choose hysterectomy methods based on clinical situations or patients' preferences. Even …

The optimal surgical approach for deep infiltrating endometriosis involving pelvic nerves (type 1 and 2).

Excision of deep infiltrating endometriosis in the parametrium involving pelvic nerves can be challenging and requires good anatomical knowledge and surgical strategy (1). Based on our experience, we have identified …

The role of robotic surgery in the treatment of advanced endometriosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Advanced endometriosis (Stage III/IV) represents a particularly severe variant of endometriosis with more pronounced symptomatology and challenging surgical treatment. This review shall examine the role of robotic surgery, the latest …

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.

Validation of the deep pelvis endometriosis index (dPEI) to evaluate surgical outcomes of robotic-assisted surgery for endometriosis.

The Deep Pelvic Endometriosis Index (dPEI) is a preoperative MRI-based score initially validated to predict surgical outcomes in patients undergoing laparoscopic treatment for deep pelvic endometriosis (DPE). Its applicability in …

Two-Port Robotic-Assisted Hysterectomy: A Case Series Demonstrating Feasibility.

Two-port robotic-assisted hysterectomy presents a minimally invasive alternative to traditional multi-port techniques. While only a few cases have been reported in the literature [1,2], the enhanced articulation and precision of …
