Robot-assisted vaginal hysterectomy combines benefits of the vaginal route and robotic surgery. This approach enhances surgical ergonomics and patient recovery, proving feasible for complex cases.

Area of Science:

  • Gynaecology
  • Surgical Robotics
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Hysterectomy is a common gynaecological procedure.
  • Vaginal hysterectomy offers benefits like reduced recovery time.
  • Robotic assistance enhances surgical precision and ergonomics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report the feasibility of robot-assisted vaginal hysterectomy.
  • To explore the combined advantages of vaginal and robotic approaches.

Main Methods:

  • Two cases of robot-assisted vaginal hysterectomy were performed.
  • Utilized robotic system for enhanced 3D vision and instrument handling.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated the feasibility of robot-assisted vaginal hysterectomy.
Keywords:
