Description
Summary:Minimally invasive surgery is a technique frequently used in gynecologic surgery. The robot-assisted surgery is a recent approach, and the benefits are not yet proven. The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility to use robot-assisted surgery for obese patient with endometrial cancer. All patients undergoing a robotic surgery for uterus malignant indication between March 2013 and May 2016 in our center were retrospectively included. Patients were divided in two groups, according to their body mass index (BMI). The group with BMI
