“…The complication rate between laparoscopy and robotic group were not statistically different (Boggess et al, 2008b). Similar results were seen in other studies (Veljovich et al, 2008;Bell et al, 2008, Seamon et al, 2009. Comparison of clinical outcomes of robotic cases versus laparoscopic or laparotomy for endometrial cancer was evaluated in a meta-analysis by Gaia et al in 2010.…”

Endometrial cancer remains the most common gynecologic malignancy in the Unites States and Western Europe. It has been estimated that in 2014, about 52, 630 new cases of endometrial cancer was diagnosed and about 8,590 died from the disease. Prior to 1988, endometrial cancer was staged clinically. Since that time surgical staging has been adopted. With the advancement in technology, the vast majority of cases are being staged and treated surgically via minimally invasive approaches. Conventional laparoscopy has been a major advancement in staging and treatment of uterine cancers. However, technical challenges such as 2-D imaging, rigid instruments, and lack of precision and surgeon fatigue did not translate into widespread adoption of this technique. With the advent of computer-enhanced robotic telesurgery, this has dramatically changed the surgical management and staging of endometrial cancer.

“…Table 1 shows comparison between open laparoscopic and robotic surgery in women with endometrial cancer 36,39,40,41 . The rate of conversion to laparotomy has been reported between 3% to 16%, 36,37,38 . Older women had lower risk of surgical complications with laparoscopic vaginal approach 43,44 yet implementation of laparoscopic surgery in these patients is low.…”
