Robotic vs laparoscopic surgery for deep endometriosis
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial compares robotic surgery and standard laparoscopic surgery for people with deep endometriosis seen on MRI. It aims to see which approach helps symptoms better or with fewer problems after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with deep endometriosis on an MRI scan
- You have symptoms from endometriosis
- Your doctor says you need surgery (operative treatment is indicated)
- You are well enough for anesthesia—ASA health score 1 to 3
- You can understand the study and sign informed consent
- You do not have recurring rectosigmoid endometriosis

This study compares two robotic surgery systems (Da Vinci and HUGO RAS) used to remove deep endometriosis. If you are scheduled for endometriosis surgery, participation could help doctors learn which robotic approach is more effective and safer.
This trial tests robotic-assisted surgery to remove the uterus (hysterectomy) and all endometriosis lesions in people with both adenomyosis and deep endometriosis. It's for those who haven't found relief from medical treatments and are ready for surgery.
This trial studies whether MRI can improve diagnosis and surgical planning for people with deep endometriosis before they have laparoscopic surgery. It may help you if you have deep endometriosis and are already scheduled for an MRI and surgery.
This study compares two surgical techniques for removing bowel affected by deep endometriosis: one where the surgeon works entirely inside the body, and one where part of the surgery is done outside. The goal is to see which approach leads to better recovery and fewer complications. If you are having bowel surgery for endometriosis, you may be able to join.
This trial tests a new surgical approach using small incisions and cameras to treat endometriosis affecting the bowel. The goal is to improve bowel function and quality of life for women with this painful condition.
This trial compares two imaging methods—transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and MRI—to see which one is better at finding deep infiltrating endometriosis before surgery. If you have endometriosis and are planning laparoscopic surgery, this study may help guide your treatment by improving how doctors see the disease.
