NCT02118974

Brief Summary

Robotic-assisted surgery is becoming more prominent within the specialty of Gynecologic surgery with little direct evidence that it is if not better than traditional laparoscopic surgery, at least equivalent. We designed a randomized-controlled trial to compare operative times, length of hospital stay, estimated blood loss, and post-operative complications associated with these two methods of minimally invasive hysterectomy.
