Abstract:

Surgery is the main treatment for early ovarian cancer. Early diagnosis and standardized treatment can significantly prolong the 5-year survival rate of patients. Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery breaks the limitations of traditional laparoscopic surgery, it has 3D stereoscopic vision, high-definition and stable lens, flexible inner wrist with 7 degrees of freedom, and improved ergonomics. It can perform fine operations in deep and narrow operating spaces and it also has the advantages of less intraoperative bleeding, less postoperative complications and faster recovery. So it has excellent results in complex operations compared with traditional laparoscopic surgery. In recent years, the research on robot-assisted laparoscopy in the comprehensive staging of early ovarian cancer has gradually increased, the development of minimally invasive surgery, especially the application of robotic surgery systems, provides a new direction for the treatment of early ovarian cancer, choosing an appropriate surgical method is of great significance for the treatment of early ovarian cancer. This article mainly reviews the adequacy, feasibility and safety of robotic systems in early ovarian cancer surgery.
