Abstract

Types of robotic radical hysterectomy, indications for robotic radical hysterectomy and a step-by-step description with illustrations of the surgical procedure are provided. Comparison of surgical and oncologic outcomes between patients undergoing laparoscopic, robotic, and abdominal radical hysterectomy are reviewed. Lastly, postoperative management for robotic radical hysterectomy is described.
