TITLE: Robotic-Assisted Ovarian Transposition and Pretreatment Surgical Staging in Cervical Cancer
Objective: To demonstrate the utility of robotic-assisted procedures in ovarian transposition in a case of cervical cancer for pretreatment surgical staging.
Methods: A 28-year-old patient with stage IIA squamous cell carcinoma was counseled to undergo ovarian transposition and paraaortic and pelvic lymph node sampling prior to initiation of chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
Results: Robotic-assisted ovarian transposition and paraaortic and pelvic lymph node sampling was performed without intraoperative or postoperative complications.
Conclusion: The benefits of robotic-assisted procedures are well demonstrated in this procedure.
