Abstract:
A robotic-assisted laparoscopic technique for transabdominal cerclage placement could offer improvements over the traditional laparoscopic approach. A gravid female with no vaginal portion of the cervix underwent a robotic-assisted laparoscopic cerclage at 12 weeks' gestation and ultimately delivered a healthy infant at term.
