Surgical Outcomes of da Vinci Xi™ and da Vinci SP™ for Early-Stage Endometrial Cancer in Patients Undergoing Hysterectomy
Abstract
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the feasibility and outcomes of two robotic hysterectomy (da Vinci Xi™ vs. da Vinci SP™) systems without lymph node dissection in patients with early-stage endometrial cancer, and assess the postoperative recurrence rate and overall survival of patients. Methods: A retrospective review of 84 patients who underwent robotic hysterectomy for endometrial cancer (stage 1A) was conducted. Surgical procedures, patient characteristics, intraoperative measures, and postoperative outcomes were statistically analyzed. A single gynecologist performed all surgeries. Results: Patient characteristics, average age, and body mass index showed no significant differences between the two models. The total operative time was significantly shorter with da Vinci SP™. Recurrence was identified in only one patient operated on with da Vinci Xi™. All patients were alive during analysis, with a median overall survival of 38 and 9 months for da Vinci Xi™ and da Vinci SP™, respectively. Conclusions: Robotic hysterectomy without lymph node dissection appears to be a safe and effective approach for patients with early-stage endometrial cancer. The da Vinci SP offers the advantage of shorter operative times than the da Vinci Xi™. These findings support the consideration of robotic surgery as a viable option for selected patients.
Keywords: da Vinci SP™; da Vinci Xi™; early-stage endometrial cancer.
