Robotic-assisted vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery versus robotic-assisted single-site port for benign hysterectomy: a comparison of surgical outcomes.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the surgical outcomes for robotic-assisted vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (R-VNOTES) hysterectomy versus robotic-assisted single-site port (RSSP) hysterectomy when performed for benign indications. This is a retrospective chart review in an academic tertiary setting. 404 patients underwent hysterectomy for benign indications.

Evaluation of the learning curve and safety outcomes in robotic assisted vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic hysterectomy: A case series of 84 patients.

Background: To explore the learning curve and safety outcomes of robotic assisted transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (R-vNOTES) for hysterectomy in benign gynaecological diseases.

Methods: A retrospective chart review of all patients undergoing R-vNOTES hysterectomy for benign gynaecological disease from 2019 to 2021.

Setting: An academic tertiary care university hospital in Houston, TX, USA.

Robotic-assisted Laparoscopic Ureterolysis for Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis using Indocyanine Green Under Near-Infrared Fluorescence.

Study Objective: To demonstrate safe identification of ureters in patients with deep infiltrating endometriosis or severe adhesive disease using indocyanine green (ICG) under near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) on the robotic platform.

Design: Stepwise demonstration using narrated video footage.

Setting: An academic tertiary care hospital.

Minimally invasive surgical management of a cornual ectopic pregnancy, with and without a concurrent intrauterine pregnancy.

Objective: To describe techniques for resection of a cornual heterotopic pregnancy.

Design: This video demonstrates a surgical technique for excision of a cornual heterotopic pregnancy with narrative video footage using two case examples.

Setting: The incidence of cornual heterotopic pregnancy is unknown; however, the incidence of heterotopic pregnancy itself has increased through the use of assisted reproductive technologies and the majority of cornual heterotopic pregnancies occur after assisted reproductive technologies use.

Postoperative opioid use for patients with chronic pelvic pain undergoing robotic surgery for resection of endometriosis.

We aimed to identify the amount of opioids used in the postoperative setting for patients with a history of chronic pelvic pain undergoing robotic surgical excision of endometriosis and compare this to patients undergoing benign robotic gynecologic surgery for other indications. We conducted a retrospective cohort study in an urban academic university hospital from January 2019 to March 2020. Data regarding opioid use was collected via a patient-reported survey that was given at the 3 weeks follow-up visit.

Surgical Outcomes of Hysterectomy via Robot-assisted versus Traditional Transvaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery.

Study Objective: To evaluate the safety and feasibility of robot-assisted transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (R-vNOTES) hysterectomy when compared with traditional vNOTES (T-vNOTES) hysterectomy.

Design: Retrospective chart review.

Setting: Academic tertiary setting.

Laparoscopic Single-site "In-bag" Ovarian Dermoid Cystectomy in a 16-week- pregnant Patient.

Study Objective: To demonstrate a novel "in-bag" ovarian cystectomy technique for a large adnexal mass in pregnancy.

Design: Stepwise demonstration with narrated video.

Setting: An academic tertiary care hospital.

Integration of a Robotic Platform for Sacrocolpopexy in Transvaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery: A Novel Surgical Technique.

Objective: To demonstrate the feasibility and the simplified surgical techniques of intraabdominal suturing and knot-tying in robotic transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (RV-NOTES) sacrocolpopexy.

Materials And Methods: We report on two patients with symptomatic stage II apical pelvic organ prolapse who underwent a new technique of RV-NOTES sacrocolpopexy. Case one: A 69-year-old G2P2002 with a history of two prior vaginal deliveries presented with a vaginal bulge and pressure symptoms.

Application of robotic single-site surgery with optional additional port for endometriosis: a single institution's experience.

To evaluate the safety and feasibility of treating stage I-IV endometriosis patients with robotic single-site surgery (RSSS). A retrospective chart review was conducted on 334 patients with endometriosis treated by a single surgeon at a university hospital from January 2015 to November 2019. Surgeries were performed in a single institution between 2015 and 2019.

Robot-assisted Transvaginal Single-site Sacrocolpopexy for Pelvic Organ Prolapse.

Study Objective: To demonstrate stepwise techniques for the successful use of the laparoscopic single-site technique for safely performing transvaginal sacrocolpopexy for pelvic organ prolapse.

Design: Stepwise demonstration with narrated video footage (Canadian Task Force classification III).

Setting: Academic tertiary care hospital.
