Background: We aimed to evaluate the usefulness of YouTube videos for helping patients become informed about robotic myomectomy.
Methods: We searched YouTube using "robotic myomectomy" and "Da Vinci myomectomy." Videos were sorted by view count, with the 150 most highly viewed videos being selected. From each video, content type, source, view count, video length, time on YouTube, likes, and dislikes were extracted. A scoring system was used to evaluate video quality.
Results: The most prevalent content was recordings of actual surgical procedures of robotic myomectomy, and the most common provider was gynecologic surgeons. Videos directly related to robotic myomectomy were mainly provided by medical groups, had been present on YouTube for a significantly longer time ( = 0.003), and had a higher rate of no responses from viewers ( = 0.014) than videos indirectly related to robotic myomectomy. Videos uploaded by nonmedical groups had more likes, more dislikes, and a higher view ratio ( = 0.029, 0.042, and 0.042, respectively). Scores reflecting video quality did not differ between the two groups. Multiple logistic regression revealed that low-quality videos (less than score 5) were significantly correlated with content indirectly related to robotic myomectomy, poor general quality, fewer views, fewer likes, and no response by viewers.
Conclusions: Patients who want to get informed about robotic myomectomy on YouTube should exclude low-quality videos according to such parameters as content, views, and response by viewers. In addition, medical groups should provide videos of good quality for instructing patients about this procedure.

This case reports a 44-year-old female who presented to the gynecologic oncology clinic status post robotic-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy with intraperitoneal unprotected power morcellation in 2012, with an incidental finding of three conglomerate solid masses in the abdomen above the uterus, with each mass measuring approximately 15.5 cm. The patient underwent an exploratory laparotomy where multiple masses greater than 10 cm were found scattered throughout the abdominal cavity.

Uterine fibroids occur frequently in women during the reproductive age, and they are rarely associated with clinical meaning because of their benign characteristics and asymptomatic clinical presentation. Sometimes, uterine fibroids are symptomatic and associated with compression syndrome, infertility, chronic pelvic pain and heavy menstrual bleeding. All need further intervention and treatment.

Introduction: Fibroids are the most common benign uterine tumors. There are different possibilities for surgical approaches, and evaluating the cost of these operations is fundamental in modern surgery. The aim of our study is to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of robotic-assisted myomectomy (RAM) compared to open myomectomy (OM) in France.

Pour and Kapurubandara), Sydney, New South Wales, Australia; Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Westmead Hospital (Dr. Kapurubandara), Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
Objective: Vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) is utilised for gynecological procedures globally, however evidence to support its application aside from hysterectomy is lacking. A systematic review to determine feasibility and safety profile of vNOTES for benign gynaecology was conducted.
Data Sources: A literature search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, SCOPUS, and CENTRAL was conducted, including all types of studies reporting vNOTES for gynecological indications.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the surgical outcomes of minimally invasive myomectomy (MIM) and abdominal myomectomy (AM) performed by fellowship-trained minimally invasive gynecologic surgery (MIGS) specialists versus general OB/GYNs.
- It was a retrospective cohort study involving 609 myomectomies conducted between 2015 and 2020 at a quaternary care institution, with a focus on the number of fibroids excised and complication rates.
- Results indicated that MIGS subspecialists had better surgical outcomes, including fewer perioperative complications and shorter surgery times for MIM, while no significant differences were found for AM between the two groups.
