Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Recent reports in both cervical and endometrial cancer suggest that minimally invasive surgery (MIS) had an unanticipated negative impact on long-term clinical outcomes, including recurrence and death. Given increasing use of robotic surgery since the LAP2 trial, we sought to compare the intermediate and long-term outcomes between those who underwent robotic surgery or laparoscopy for Stage I endometrial cancer.
