Background. Currently, genital endometriosis is considered as one of the most severe conditions in women of reproductive age, which has detrimental consequences for social, professional and psychological functioning. It ranks third in the structure of gynecological diseases after inflammatory diseases of the female reproductive system and uterine fibroids. Because of this, it acquires a more pronounced social significance and ceases to be only a medical problem. Aim. To study the results of surgical treatment of patients with severe forms of genital endometriosis using the da Vinci surgical robotic complex.Materials and methods. A retrospective analysis of the treatment results of 51 patients operated on at the N.I. Pirogov National Medical and Surgical Center for the period from January 2015 to July 2024, who underwent robot-assisted (da Vinci) operations for deep endometriosis involving neighboring organs. The duration of surgery and hospital stay, the amount of blood loss, the frequency of intra- and postoperative complications, the clinical course of the disease in the long-term postoperative period, the frequency of detection of residual infiltration in the postoperative period, and the implementation of reproductive plans were analyzed.Results. The duration of the surgical intervention was 220.8 ± 21.87 minutes. The postoperative bed-day was 6.9 ± 1.5 bed days. The average blood loss was 160.2 ± 67.58 ml. There were no intraoperative complications. Postoperative complications accounted for 7.8 %. Residual infiltration occurred in 11.7 % of cases. 94.1 % of the patients had no clinical symptoms of endometriosis in the long-term postoperative period. The pregnancy rate was 31.9 %.Conclusion. Surgical treatment of deep endometriosis using da Vinci surgical robotic complex in the amount of radical removal of endometrioid infiltrate has a positive effect on both the clinical course of the disease and the reproductive potential of a woman. Real-time fluorescence navigation has demonstrated additional imaging capabilities in robotic surgery for deep endometriosis, potentially increasing the radicalism of surgical treatment of infiltrating endometriosis and may lead to a reduction in recurrence rates.
