Objective: To share our experience of transition from multiport to single-site robotic surgery for benign gynecological conditions as well as to assess the selection criteria of candidates for robotic single-site supracervical hysterectomy (RSSH).
Materials And Methods: A retrospective review was conducted on patients undergoing robotic supracervical hysterectomy by a single surgeon in a single institute between June 2014 and December 2017. Patients who underwent additional procedures along with supracervical hysterectomy and who had unexpectant corpus malignancy proved pathologically were excluded from comparisons between patients undergoing RSSH and robotic multiport supracervical hysterectomy (RMSH).
Results: Between June 2014 and December 2017, we accomplished 26 RSSH and 57 RMSH. There were no conversions, intraoperative complications, and readmissions within 30 days after surgery. In the RSSH group, the mean uterine weight was 264.6 ± 140.9 g with mean docking time of 15.8 ± 5.5 min, mean console time of 61.1 ± 35.6 min and mean operative time of 140.3 ± 34.4 min. In comparison to the RMSH group, the percentage of overweight/obese patients was lower (p = 0.018) and the uterine size was smaller (p < 0.001) with adenomyosis diagnosed more frequently (p = 0.002) in the RSSH group. While the operative time in the RSSH group was significantly shorter (p = 0.002), the RSSH group took longer time in docking (p < 0.001) and comparable time in console (p = 0.254). In view of chronological change, docking time and console time in the RMSH group remained steady, whereas steep decreases were observed in the RSSH group. The intraoperative blood loss and hemoglobin drop were comparable. The length of hospital stay was significantly shorter in the RSSH group (p = 0.005).
Conclusion: Transition from multiport to single-site surgery can be smooth for a surgical team experienced in the conventional multiport robotic system. RSSH is safe and feasible in properly selected patients.

Unexpected placenta accreta spectrum in an unscarred uterus causing catastrophic post-partum hemorrhage: a case report and review of the literature.
BMC Pregnancy Childbirth

Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Adesh Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Bathinda, Punjab, 151001, India.
Background: Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorder is a fatal condition responsible for obstetric haemorrhage, which contributes to increased feto-maternal morbidity and mortality. The main contributing factor is a scarred uterus, often from a previous cesarean delivery, myomectomy, or uterine instrumentation. The occurrence of PAS in an unscarred uterus is extremely rare, with only anecdotal cases reported so far in the literature.

Article Synopsis
- The study compares total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) and laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy (LSCH) during minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy for treating uterovaginal prolapse.
- Results showed no significant difference in overall recurrence of prolapse between the two methods, but TLH had lower odds of recurrence in multivariable analysis.
- TLH had a higher proportion of mesh exposures with lightweight mesh, but this finding wasn't significant after adjusting for other factors.
Composite Failure Associated With Sacrohysteropexy and Sacrocolpopexy With Supracervical Hysterectomy for Advanced Pelvic Organ Prolapse.

Department of Orthopedics, Hokusuikai Kinen Hospital, Ibaraki, Japan.
Objectives: Failures and complications associated with treatments comprising laparoscopic sacrohysteropexy (SHP) for advanced pelvic organ prolapse (POP) are unclear. We compared failure rates associated with SHP and laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy (SCH)/sacrocolpopexy (SCP) for advanced POP to determine whether they differed.
Methods: Clinical data of patients who underwent SHP (n = 52) and SCH/SCP (n = 209) were retrospectively examined.
Article Synopsis
- Uterine leiomyomas can sometimes lead to serious conditions like deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), even in patients with no known risk factors.
- A 38-year-old woman experienced leg swelling, pain, and breathing difficulties and was diagnosed with DVT and PE, which were confirmed through imaging.
- The treatment involved mechanical thrombectomy and hysterectomy, resulting in a full recovery with no recurrence of thromboembolic events after 11 months.
Gross hematuria and placenta percreta: Report of two cases and literature review.
J Obstet Gynaecol Res

Department of Radiology, Poursina Hospital, Guilan University of Medical Sciences, Rasht, Iran.
Placenta percreta, a rare variant of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders, poses a significant risk of life-threatening hemorrhage associated with the adherent placenta. Bladder involvement signifies an even rarer incidence and may sometimes present solely with gross hematuria. Therefore, it is imperative to consider both microscopic and gross hematuria during pregnancy as alarming signs.
