Abstract

AIM: The surgical treatment of endometrial cancer (EC) can be more complicated in obese patients. Robotic surgery could simplify the surgical approach in these patients. The aim of our study was to compare the outcomes of robotic surgery in obese (body mass index ≥30 kg/m ) and nonobese patients.
