”“robotic gynecologic surgery,”“robotic oncology,” and “robotic radical hysterectomy.” Articles were selected on the basis of the following criteria: English language, procedure performed strictly by the robotic approach, and procedure categorized as a type II or type III radical hysterectomy. ...
Patients comprising FIGO stage IA2 to IB1 were treated with nerve-sparing robotic radical hysterectomy using a C1 (Querleu-Morrow classification) type technique. The feasibility, operative time, blood loss, oncological outcome and post-operative bladder function were assessed. All the procedures were...
(5) studies analyzing the effects of surgical laparoscopic hysterectomy in EC patients with BMI>30 kg/m2. Blood loss, surgical site infection, hospital stay, operative time, and perioperative complications were considered adverse effects; additionally, conversation rate and costs were evaluated. Resu...
Since that time, laparoscopic radical hysterectomy has been shown to be a safe and feasible alternative for treatment of early-stage cervical cancer. (Ramirez et al., 2006; Frumovitz et al., 2007). However, the use of laparoscopic radical hysterectomy has not been embraced by most gynecologic...

Paraaortic lymph node (PAN) dissection which requires docking to the head side after the operation on the pelvic side and radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer, are still performed under this advanced medical treatment. Since procedures were usually initiated and performed through abdominal surgery,...

Radical prostatectomy via an open approach has historically been the gold standard therapy for the surgical treatment ofprostate cancer. While oncologic and functional outcomes following open radical prostatectomy are excellent, prolonged recovery is a legitimate concern for physicians and patients. With suc...
In a cohort of 1157 individuals with employer-sponsored insurance, those undergoing open surgery, compared to robotic surgery, had 9.9 more absent workdays for radical prostatectomy (95%CI 5.0 to 14.7, p < 0.001), 25.3 for hysterectomy/myomectomy (95%CI 11.0–39.6, p < 0.001), and...
The advances in robotic surgical technology, combined with our extensive institutional experience with robotic radical hysterectomy, allowed the application of this technology to uterus procurement successfully. In a human UTx situation, live and deceased donations can be considered. The major advantages ...
