Spectral imaging, supported by computational methods, has shown promising results in the diagnostic evaluation of gynecologic disease by providing functional and molecular information beyond the capacities of standard visual assessment.

Background and Objectives: Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease with multifactorial pathogenesis. Increasing evidence suggests that alterations in the gut and reproductive tract microbiota may contribute to di…

INTRODUCTION: The Hugo™ Robotic-Assisted Surgery (RAS) system is a recent development in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery. Following regulatory approval, its clinical use has expanded. However, comprehensive evidence on feasibility, s…

BACKGROUND: RAS system. METHOD: validated questionnaire: BFLUTS, KESS, GIQLI), and pain symptoms both before and after surgery were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: < 0.0001) was found between the two groups. A significant differen…

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…

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 ha…

OBJECTIVE: Ureteral endometriosis has an incidence of 0.1% to 1%. The type of surgery required is either conservative (ureterolysis) or radical treatment, depending on the degree of ureter infiltration. The incidence of intraoperative and p…

BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive surgery is the gold standard treatment for deep endometriosis when medical management fails. In selected cases, such as when bowel or urinary tract are involved, robotic assisted surgery can be useful due to i…

Endometriosis is a benign disease requiring surgery if medical treatment can not achieve symptom control. Laparoscopy remains the gold standard and robotic assistance can be beneficial in complex cases. Robot-assisted radical endometriosis …

BACKGROUND: Deep endometriosis (DE) usually creates a distortion of the retroperitoneal anatomy and may infiltrate the parametria with an oncomimetic pathway similar to cervical cancer. The condition represents a severe manifestation of end…
