Comparison of the initial surgical experience with robotic and laparoscopic myomectomy

Abstract

RM may have some additional advantages compared with LM in terms of bleeding and uterine suturing without compromising operation duration, at least when surgeons were at the beginning of their experience of endoscopic treatment of symptomatic uterine myomas.

Robot‐assisted laparoscopic myomectomy for deep intramural myomas

“…Another factor for the long mean operative time of this study is the number of removed myomas. In this study, the mean number of removed myomas for each case was 3.8 ± 3.5 (range [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. This is greater than the values in other studies (4,7,8,11,12).…”

Surgical technique of endometrioma excision impacts on the ovarian reserve. Single-port access laparoscopy versus multiport access laparoscopy: a case control study

“…Appropriate surgical technique has been indicated to minimise the detrimental effect of surgery on the ovarian reserve [6,21]. In our opinion the development of new surgical approaches should always be compared to the conventional treatment [22]. Single-port access laparoscopy has been recently developed and many studies have evidenced its advantages and limits in gynaecological surgery [23].…”

Influence of pneumoperitoneum pressure on surgical field during robotic and laparoscopic surgery: a comparative study

“…However, future studies including multiple centers and a higher number of patients are needed to confirm our results. Moreover, considering the results obtained in some studies which have demonstrated the differences between beginner and experienced surgeons in robotic surgery, such as the study by Pluchino et al [15], it could be interesting to evaluate in future studies differences between skilled and not surgeons in both laparoscopy and robotic approach.…”
