Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Minimally invasive (MI) surgery has long been established as a standard for hysterectomy in benign conditions. Robotic surgery is generally seen as equivalent to conventional laparoscopy in terms of patient outcome. However, robotics might facilitate an MI approach even in complex patients, rendering laparotomy unnecessary for almost all patients.
