ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to analyze the trends and clinical outcomes of minimally invasive surgical techniques in the treatment of endometrial carcinoma at the National Institute of Oncology, Department of Gynecology, from 2016 to 2023. This retrospective study included patients with endometrial carcinoma stages I-IV who underwent primary surgical treatment between 2016 and 2023. The techniques analyzed were total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH), robotic- assisted hysterectomy (RAH), and total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH). A total of 1127 patients were included. The number of minimally invasive surgeries increased significantly: in 2016, there were 69 laparotomies and 1 TLH, while in 2023, there were 57 laparotomies, 19 TLHs and 123 robotic-assisted hysterectomies. As a conclusion, the use of minimally invasive techniques significantly increased in the treatment of endometrial carcinoma. The entire team, including anesthesiologists, gained experience in managing morbidly obese patients, enabling safe minimally invasive surgeries.
