Artificial Intelligence, the ChatGPT Large Language Model: Assessing the Accuracy of Responses to the Gynaecological Endoscopic Surgical Education and Assessment (GESEA) Level 1-2 knowledge tests.

Background: In 2022, OpenAI launched ChatGPT 3.5, which is now widely used in medical education, training, and research. Despite its valuable use for the generation of information, concerns persist about its authenticity and accuracy.

Clash of the Titans: the first multi-center retrospective comparative study between da Vinci and Hugo RAS surgical systems for the treatment of deep endometriosis.

Background: The proliferation of several robotic platforms presents an opportunity to pinpoint the most suitable system for specific procedures and patient profiles. This study aims to explore differences in complications and functional outcomes among patients undergoing deep endometriosis excision with the da Vinci surgical system compared to the Hugo RAS system.

Method: This is a retrospective, multicenter cohort study.

Anatomical-based classification of dorsolateral parametrectomy for deep endometriosis. Correlation with surgical complications and functional outcomes: A single- center prospective study.

Objective: To evaluate complication rate and functional outcomes of nerve-sparing parametrectomy for deep endometriosis in relation to the extension of the surgical procedure, based on recognizable anatomical landmarks.

Methods: This was a prospective single-center study including all patients undergoing parametrectomy for deep endometriosis from September 2020 to June 2023 at our tertiary center. Dorsolateral parametrectomies were divided into parametrectomies medial to the presacral fascia and cranial to the medial rectal artery (superficial parametrectomy), and parametrectomies in which one of the two landmarks was overcome during the surgical procedure, leading to the excision of tissue lateral to the presacral fascia (deep parametrectomy type 1, or DP1) or caudal to the medial rectal artery (DP2).

Feasibility of Intraoperative Proctosigmoidoscopy After Discoid Bowel Resection for Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis: A Pilot Multicenter Study.

Study Objective: Although surgery is the gold standard treatment for pain refractory to medical management or partial occlusion owing to rectosigmoid endometriosis, surgical resection can be associated with major perioperative complications. From general surgery experience, intraoperative proctosigmoidoscopy has shown encouraging results as a feasible, safe, and effective technique in reducing the risk of complications related to intestinal anastomosis after segmental resection. Unfortunately, there are no studies evaluating its role after discoid resection for rectosigmoid endometriosis.

Robotic assisted versus laparoscopic surgery for deep endometriosis: a meta-analysis of current evidence.

Endometriosis is a benign inflammatory onco-mimetic disease affecting 10-15% of women in the world. When it is refractory to medical treatments, surgery may be required. Usually, laparoscopy is the preferred approach, but robotic surgery has gained popularity in the last 15 years.
