Robotic hysterectomy for the treatment of refractory menometrorrhagia and squamous endometrial morules: A case report

Abstract

Introduction: Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is a common presentation in the field of gynecology. Proper diagnosis and management of this condition can be difficult and permanent treatment options, including robotic hysterectomy, may be necessary. In patients with a history of previous abdominal surgery, pelvic adhesions may present obstacles to this surgical approach. Case Report: In this case report, a 41-year-old woman desired permanent treatment for AUB. The patient underwent endometrial biopsy which revealed inexplicit squamous morules. She opted for permanent treatment via robotic hysterectomy. Her operation was complicated by the presence of dense pelvic adhesions caused by previous surgeries. Conclusion: This report aims to detail the potential difficulties in the clinical management of inconclusive biopsy results and in using a robotic approach to hysterectomy in the setting of pelvic adhesions. Authors encourage ongoing clinical investigation to determine the optimal methods for diagnosing and treating AUB.
