Using video to make uterine cancer surgery safer
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study is collecting videos from a type of minimally invasive surgery called sentinel lymph node dissection for endometrial or cervical cancer. The goal is to use deep learning (a type of artificial intelligence) to help surgeons identify important structures and any spread of cancer during the procedure, making the surgery safer and more effective.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman having minimally invasive sentinel lymph node dissection (a surgery to remove and check the first lymph nodes that might have cancer) for endometrial or cervical cancer.
- A video of your surgery will be available and can be used for the study.
- You are over 18 years old.
- You are willing to join the study and sign a consent form.

This study looks at how moving the uterus during minimally invasive surgery may affect women with early-stage endometrial cancer. It may help doctors choose the safest, most effective surgical approach.
This study compares two ways to check lymph nodes during surgery for early-stage endometrial (uterine) cancer: sentinel node biopsy versus removing more lymph nodes. It may help find whether the less extensive approach can stage the cancer accurately with fewer side effects.
This study looks at how well a surgical tool is used during standard surgery for early endometrial cancer, and whether it relates to test results from fluid taken in the abdomen. It may help surgeons improve how samples are collected and interpreted during routine care.
This trial is testing a newer, single-port robotic system (da Vinci SP) for staging surgery in endometrial cancer. It aims to see if this system is safe and effective for removing the uterus, ovaries, and possibly lymph nodes, with less scarring.
This study checks if cancer has spread to the lining of the belly (peritoneum) using a small camera surgery (laparoscopy) in people with advanced cervical cancer. If found, it helps guide the right treatment.
This trial compares two ways of removing lymph nodes during a vaginal minimally invasive surgery for early-stage endometrial cancer. It aims to find which method is safer and more effective.
