BACKGROUND: Preliminary study of the feasibility of robot-assisted laparoscopy for @entity530 nodule resection. @entity1 AND METHODS: Between May 2009 and February 2010, we collected medical and surgical data about deep infiltrating @entity46 resections performed in our institution, using robot-assisted laparoscopy (DA VINCI Intuitive Surgical System(  )). RESULTS: Six @entity1 were included: four partial bladder and two uterosacral ligament resections. The median age was 29.5 years (24-48). All @entity1 reported chronic @entity2371 , associated with urinary tract symptoms in case of @entity1494 . Before surgery, lesion mapping was performed using magnetic resonance imaging for all, and mechanical bowel preparation or double-j stenting were prescribed, depending on the @entity46 location. Surgical procedures median time was 173 minutes (156-244), and median length of stay was 3 days (2-5). Complete resection was possible in all cases. There was no conversion in classical laparoscopy or laparotomy, and no intraoperative complication. Pathology diagnosis of surgical pieces concluded to @entity75 in all cases. CONCLUSION: This study shows the feasibility of the robot-assisted laparoscopy in the resection of @entity530 , without increasing of surgical timing, @entity190 or @entity3816 .
