This paper reports two case studies describing robotic-assisted transumbilical single-site and transvaginal NOTES surgical resection of abdominal wall cesarean scar endometriosis. The authors provide clinical considerations and contextualize their approach within prior literature summarized in two tables, but the report is limited by its case-report design and lack of larger comparative data. The key reported outcome is that resection was performed using these minimally invasive robotic-assisted techniques in the two described patients, with details presented as case narratives rather than systematic evaluation. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically abdominal wall cesarean scar endometriosis treated via robotic-assisted transumbilical single-site and transvaginal NOTES resection.
