1439 Feasibility and Surgical Outcomes Associated with Reduced Port Robotic-Assisted Hysterectomy

2019 
Study Objective Demonstrate the safety, feasibility, and outcomes associated with the reduced port robotic-assisted hysterectomy (RPRH). Design We performed a retrospective cohort study of women undergoing a reduced-port robotic-assisted hysterectomy between 2012 and 2018 for benign indications. Setting A single academic university hospital. Patients or Participants Women who underwent a reduced port robotic-assisted hysterectomy for benign indications by a fellowship trained minimally invasive surgeon. Interventions A reduced port robotic-assisted hysterectomy for benign indications. Measurements and Main Results Women included were stratified into one of four groups based on uterine weight: Conclusion Reduced port robotic-assisted hysterectomy is a safe, effective, and efficient surgery for appropriately selected women. Outcomes appear similar across uterine weights with increased operative time, estimated blood loss, and odds of ureterolysis increasing as specimen weight increases.
