Abstract:
The worldwide growth of robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery has been exponential since its FDA approval for use in gynecologic surgery in the spring of 2005. This growth has spanned the entire gamut of gynecologic procedures and pathology. One area that has leveraged the unique aspects of robotics has been its application to the conservative surgical management of uterine fibroids. This manuscript will review the surgical technique and highlight the current situation regarding the scientific literature with an evidence-based focus on the role of robot-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy (RALM) with the daVinci Surgical System (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, CA).
