Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the frequency of lower extremity lymphedema in patients with early-stage endometrial cancer who had laparoscopic surgery using the sentinel lymph node (SLN) approach.
- A total of 239 patients were surveyed, revealing that those who underwent hysterectomy with SLN had a significantly lower lymphedema rate (21.4%) compared to those who had systematic lymphadenectomy (44.6%).
- The results support the use of SLN mapping in laparoscopic surgery for endometrial cancer, as it reduces the risk of lymphatic complications while maintaining diagnostic effectiveness.
Laparoscopic subtotal hysterectomy followed by in-bag transvaginal corpus uteri morcellation and extraction: A case series.

Objectives: Laparoscopic subtotal hysterectomy (LSH) is a possible treatment for patients with benign uterine disease. Once the hysterectomy has been completed, morcellation and extraction of the corpus uteri is a crucial step of the procedure. We here present a case series to evaluate the feasibility of the in-bag transvaginal specimen retrieval following LSH.
