Effect of Uterine Weight on the Surgical Outcomes of Robot-Assisted Hysterectomy in Benign Indications

Effect of Uterine Weight on the Surgical Outcomes of Robot-Assisted Hysterectomy in Benign Indications

Background Uterine weight is an important factor in determining the complexity of a hysterectomy. Although greater uterine weight increases operative time and blood loss in open or laparoscopic surgery, it remains uncertain whether this applies to robot-assisted hysterectomy. This study aimed to inv...

Zusammenfassung:Background Uterine weight is an important factor in determining the complexity of a hysterectomy. Although greater uterine weight increases operative time and blood loss in open or laparoscopic surgery, it remains uncertain whether this applies to robot-assisted hysterectomy. This study aimed to investigate the effect of uterine weight on the surgical outcomes of robot-assisted hysterectomy. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study involving 872 patients who underwent robot-assisted hysterectomies at our institution between January 2019 and June 2022. Of these, 724 cases were analyzed and classified into four groups based on uterine weight:
