Oncologic outcomes of robot-assisted laparoscopy versus conventional laparoscopy for the treatment of apparent early-stage endometrioid adenocarcinoma of the uterus.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To compare long-term oncologic outcomes in patients with clinically uterine-confined endometrioid endometrial cancer who underwent surgical staging with robot-assisted (RA) versus conventional laparoscopy.

Methods

We performed a retrospective chart review of patients with newly diagnosed, uterine-confined endometrioid endometrial cancer who were treated and had primary surgery at our institution between 1/1/2009-1/1/2018. Clinicopathologic, surgical, and survival data were collected. Appropriate statistical methods were applied.

Results

Of 1728 patients identified, 1389 (80.4%) underwent RA and 339 (19.6%) conventional laparoscopy. At diagnosis, median age was 60 years (range, 24-92) and median BMI was 30.2 kg/m² (range, 15.1-71.5). In the RA grou
