Robot-assisted hysterectomy for gynecologic conditions
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a new robotic system to perform a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) and possibly remove the fallopian tubes, ovaries, or lymph nodes, if needed. It aims to see if this robotic approach is safe and effective for patients who are already candidates for laparoscopic surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) that can be done laparoscopically (small incisions).
- You may also need to have your fallopian tubes, ovaries, or lymph nodes removed, as decided by your doctor.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding at the time of surgery.
- You have not had radiation therapy to the pelvic area before.
- Your uterus is not too large (less than 8 cm) for removal through the vagina without morcellation (cutting into smaller pieces).
- You are not severely overweight (BMI less than 40).
- You are generally healthy enough for minimally invasive surgery and have no severe heart, lung, or bleeding conditions.
- You do not have an active infection or have had multiple prior abdominal surgeries with scar tissue.
- You are not participating in another trial that could affect this study's results.

This trial tests a faster, robotic-assisted surgery for children ages 6 to 21. It aims to see if completing part of the operation using a robot can be as safe and effective as traditional open surgery, possibly leading to quicker recovery and less pain.
This trial compares two types of minimally invasive surgery (robot-assisted vs. conventional laparoscopy) for removing the uterus in people with early-stage, low- to intermediate-risk endometrial cancer. The goal is to see which approach offers the best value and outcomes.
This study tests a robotic system called DEXTER used during minimally invasive hysterectomy (uterus removal) for non-cancerous conditions. It aims to confirm that the system is safe and works well when used in everyday care.
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 robotic surgery technology for women who need a gynecologic procedure and are good candidates for the Intuitive Surgical system. It may help doctors improve how these surgeries are done, and it requires you to follow the study steps and consent to participate.
This study is testing new type of surgical instruments that are used during minimally invasive gynecologic surgery to see if they are easier to use and have better outcomes. If you are already scheduled for a hysterectomy or sacrocolpopexy, you may be able to join.
