BACKGROUND: Robotic-assisted hysterectomy is increasingly performed using modular platforms such as the Hugo™ roboticassisted surgery (RAS) system, but optimal or personalised docking strategies remain undefined. OBJECTIVES: To establish e…
We share our experience with the Hugo™ Robotic-Assisted Surgery system in benign gynecological surgeries. We retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent elective robotic surgeries for benign gynecological conditions at our surgical cent…
Nerve-sparing (NS) surgery was first introduced for the treatment of deep endometriosis (DE) 20 years ago, drawing on established neuroanatomy and success from oncological applications. It aims to identify and preserve autonomic nerve fibre…
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to explore the abnormal pathology findings in appendix specimens removed based on intraoperative abnormal appearance during elective surgery for benign gynaecological conditions by a minimally invasive gynaecologist, as …
BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic reverse submucosal dissection (LRSD) is a standardised surgical technique for removal of rectosigmoid endometriosis which optimises the anatomical dissection plane for excision of endometriotic nodules. AIM: This co…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological condition which affects 5–10% of women of reproductive age and up to 50% of women with pelvic pain and infertility. The most commonly affected areas are the pelvic peritoneum, ovaries and rectovaginal…
To prospectively validate the recently developed Ultrasound Based Endometriosis Staging System (UBESS). Multicentre study of consecutive women presenting with chronic pelvic pain from July 2013 to December 2015. All women with symptoms of c…
OBJECTIVES: To examine the association between ovarian immobility and presence of endometriomas and assess the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal sonographic (TVS) ovarian immobility in the detection of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE…
We read with interest the comments from Noventa et al. regarding the difficulty in identifying the best ‘first-line’ approach for the diagnosis of site-specific deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) of the posterior compartment. Indeed, the…
OBJECTIVE: To use office gel sonovaginography (SVG) to predict posterior deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) in women undergoing laparoscopy. METHODS: This was a multicenter prospective observational study carried out between January 2009…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate preoperative real-time dynamic transvaginal sonography (TVS) in the prediction of pouch of Douglas (POD) obliteration in women undergoing laparoscopy for suspected endometriosis. METHODS: This was a multicenter prospe…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To identify the volume and type of laparoscopic surgery being performed. To review the incidence, nature of associated complications, and reasons for conversion to laparotomy. DESIGN: A multicenter, prospective case load a…
