Possible role of DaVinci Robot in uterine transplantation

Minimally invasive surgery,specifically robotic surgery,became a common technique used by gynecological surgeons over the last decade. the realization of the first human uterine transplantation commenced new perspectives in the treatment of uterine agenesia or infertility in women with history of hysterectomy at a young age. robot-assisted technique may enhance the safety of the procedure by facilitating the microvascular anastomosis,vaginal anastomosis,and ligaments’ fixation. this study proposes the formation of a multicenter collaboration group to organize a protocol with the aim to clarify the possible role of robotic surgery in uterine transplantation. © 2015 by the turkish-german gynecological education and research foundation.
