Radical hysterectomy is an important surgical procedure in gynecologic oncology. New technologies are changing hysterectomy techniques, and integrated treatments could expand the surgical indications in gynecologic oncology. Minimally invasive (laparoscopic or robotic surgery) radical hysterectomy adoption is slowed by different factors despite the apparent improvement of morbidity outcomes. Moreover, data about oncologic long-term outcomes of minimally invasive radical hysterectomy are relatively sparse, and more research is needed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
