ObjectivesTo evaluate the current patterns of use of minimally invasive surgical procedures, including traditional, robotic-assisted, and single-port laparoscopy, by Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) members and to compare the results to those of our 2004 and 2007 surveys.MethodsThe Society of Gynecologic Oncology members were surveyed through an online or mailed-paper survey. Data were analyzed and compared with results of our prior surveys.ResultsFour hundred six (32%) of 1279 SGO members responded. Eighty-three percent of respondents (n = 337) performed traditional laparoscopic surgery (compared with 84% in 2004 and 91% in 2007). Ninety-seven percent of respondents performed robotic surgery (compared with 27% in 2007). When respondents were asked to indicate procedures that they performed with the robot but not with traditional laparoscopy, 75% indicated radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy for cervical cancer. Overall, 70% of respondents indicated that hysterectomy and staging for uterine cancer was the procedure they most commonly performed with a minimally invasive approach. Only 17% of respondents who performed minimally invasive surgery performed single-port laparoscopy, and only 5% of respondents indicated that single-port laparoscopy has an important or very important role in the field.ConclusionsSince our prior surveys, we found a significant increase in the overall use and indications for robotic surgery. Radical hysterectomy or trachelectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy for cervical cancer and total hysterectomy and staging for endometrial cancer were procedures found to be significantly more appropriate for the robotic platform in comparison to traditional laparoscopy. The indications for laparoscopy have expanded beyond endometrial cancer staging to include surgical management of early-stage cervical and ovarian cancers, but the use of single-port laparoscopy remains limited.

Robotic Colorectal Surgery

Minimally invasive surgery has become mainstream in surgical management of colorectal disease. Based on evidence of oncologic safety and benefit to patients, laparoscopic colorectal surgery is regarded as a successful alternative to open surgery. Since the introduction of the da Vinci® system as another tool for minimally invasive surgery, there have been several reports regarding the feasibility and safety of the system. The authors looked at their experience with 412 robotic colorectal surgeries and found that it was feasible and safe. Incidence of operation-related morbidity was around 11 per cent and system-related problems were 2.4 per cent. There was no operation-related or system-related mortality. From a technological perspective, robotic surgery has several advantages over laparoscopic surgery, including a magnifying view with a three-dimensional image, a stable camera platform, and instruments with Endowrist® technology that allow for seven degrees of freedom of movement. However, there is still room for improvement. The revolution of robotic technology can aid in the realization of a dream: a smaller, cheaper, and more sophisticated robotic system, which will further facilitate the widespread application of robotic surgery to colorectal disease.

Single Site Surgery

Minimally invasive surgery has changed the landscape of women’s surgical healthcare. Conventional and robotic laparoscopy are the preferred approach for many major minimally invasive gynecological procedures. However, the philosophy of minimally invasive surgery has been pushed to reduce the size and minimize the number of ports placed. Many conventional minimally invasive surgical procedures use 3–5 ports through multiple small incisions. Laparoscopic single site surgery tries to perform on that philosophy but has its limitations. Enters robotic surgery already a major force in minimally invasive surgery and now sets to remove the limitations of single site surgery. However it requires proper understanding of the instruments and the techniques for successful robotic single site surgery. It starts with patient selection. Knowing the instruments needed and the proper set up of those instruments. Then knowing how to use the instruments in operating and suturing and closing. And finish with special considerations.
