Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the robot-assisted approach with the laparoscopic approach in terms of reducing the rates of intraoperative and postoperative complications in patients undergoing total hysterectomy for DIE and adenomyosis without digestive tract involvement.

Study Arms (2)
without Robotic-Assisted
ACTIVE COMPARATORIn the control group, all patients will undergo a Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy. The number of ports needed for the laparoscope and assistants will be reported.
Robotic-Assisted
EXPERIMENTALAll patients in the experimental group will undergo a Robotic-Assisted Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy using either the HugoTM Robot-Assisted Surgery system (Medtronic©), the Da Vinci® Xi or X Surgical System, or CMR versus (if available). The number of ports required for the laparoscope, robotic arms, and assistants will be documented.
Interventions
The standard procedure for performing total hysterectomy will also follow the Querleu and Morrow classification system, which divides the procedure into four types based on the extent of resection: * Type A: minimum resection of paracervix. * Type B: transection of the paracervix and the ureter. * Type C: Transection of paracervix at the junction with the internal iliac vascular system * Type D: Laterally extended resection. Furthermore, bilateral ureterolysis will be performed with the option of bilateral concomitant salpingo-oophorectomy.
unilateral or bilateral ureterolysis with or without bilateral adnexectomy
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- ≥ 18 years of age.
- Diagnosed adenomyosis, either internal or external (magnetic resonance imaging) per the Enzian and dPEI classifications.
- Diagnosed deep infiltrating endometriosis per the Enzian and dPEI classifications, without the involvement of the digestive tract.
- Failure of first- and second-line medical treatment.
- Eligibility for total hysterectomy with complete removal of endometriosis lesions.
- Participants covered by entitled to social security.
- All participants must provide written informed consent before undergoing the surgical procedure.
You may not qualify if:
