Abstract Objective To compare perioperative outcomes between laparoscopy and robotic-assisted surgery in the surgical treatment of endometriosis in a high-volume tertiary center. Methods Retrospective, observational, and analytical study…
Minimally invasive surgery is the gold standard for the surgical treatment of endometriosis. However, controversy remains in the literature regarding the perioperative benefits of robotic-assisted surgery compared to laparoscopic surgery, p…
(1) Background: The pandemic led to significant healthcare disruptions, resulting in postponed surgeries and extended waiting times for non-urgent treatments, including hysteroscopies essential for diagnosing endometrial cancer. This study …
OBJECTIVE: Robotic surgery is currently on the rise and has been widely applied all over the world. Gynecology offers great opportunities for the development of innovative techniques due to the magnitude of surgical needs. The aim of this s…
OBJECTIVES: Arterial embolization of myomas (AEM) is controversial because of the changes that occur in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of the endometrium and its effect on gestational success in infertile patients desiring reproductive capa…
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the perioperative results and safety of performing gynecological surgeries using robot-assisted laparoscopy during implementation of the technique in a community hospital over a 6-year period. METHODS: This was a retr…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the technique of uterine transplantation and the use of drugs used in the process of immunosuppression. METHODS: We included 12 sows, and immunosuppression was performed with minimal doses of cyclosporine, and cross-…
OBJECTIVE: This article presents the first series of robotic single-port hysterectomy cases performed at a hospital in Brazil. METHODS: From November 2014 to October 2016, 11 patients were indicated to undergo, and nine of them were submit…
For symptomatic deep infiltrating endometriosis, surgery is often required to achieve symptom relief and restore fertility. A minimally invasive approach using laparoscopy is considered the gold standard. However, specific limitations of th…
We report a case of uterine artery rupture in a woman at 14 weeks' gestation who presented with abdominal pain, tachycardia, and hypotension and underwent a diagnostic laparoscopy. During this procedure, a spontaneous rupture of the left ut…
Arterial embolization of myomas (AEM) is an established option for the conservative treatment of uterine leio-myomas; it treats all present uterine nodules at once, is less invasive than other procedures and effective in controlling symptom…
