Abstract

Background/Aim: To compare the surgical outcomes of robotic and laparoscopic hysterectomy with or without pelvic lymphadenectomy among obese patients [body mass index (BMI) >30 kg/m2] with early-stage endometrial cancer. Patients and Methods: We examined 42 obese patients with early-stage endometrial cancer who underwent laparoscopic (LH) or robotic hysterectomy (RH) between April 2014 and April 2020 in our institution. We analysed intraoperative and postoperative data for both procedures. Results: Of the 42 women, 22 and 20 patients underwent RH and LH, respectively, with or without pelvic lymphadenectomy. The operation times, harvested lymph nodes, and BMI did not differ between the groups. In the subset of patients who underwent pelvic lymphadenectomy, those in the RH group had shorter hospital stays (p=0.001) and less intraoperative bleeding (p=0.006). Conclusion: Obese patients with endometrial cancer who underwent robotic surgery had less blood loss and shorter hospital stays than those who underwent laparoscopic surgery.
