Description
In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief Dr. Pedro Ramirez, is joined by Dr. Javier Magrina to discuss robotic vs open radical hysterectomy in pathology interrogation. Dr. Magrina is a Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Mayo Graduate School of Medicine, and the recipient of the Barbara Woodward Lips Professorship. He is a staff consultant at Mayo Clinic Arizona.
Conclusions:
. robotic radical hysterectomy results in inferior survival as compared to laparotomy.
. robotic radical hysterectomy for early cervical cancer <2 cm results in similar survival as laparotomy.
. patients with previous conization, i.e. absence of exposed cancer cells in the cervix, have similar survival as laparotomy
. intraperitoneal recurrences are not seen with laparotomy and appear due to the exfoliation and seeding of cervical cancer cells.
