Abstract/OtherAbstract:
There is no doubt that laparoscopic surgeries have replaced open surgeries in many gynecologic operations and have led to the development of novel techniques such as single-port laparoscopic surgery. Single-port surgery has been performed mainly for hysterectomy or adnexectomy recently, and it has also been carefully considered for other possible single-port surgeries such as cancer operations. Although pelvic lymph node dissection is a common procedure in gynecologic cancer operations, it has been rarely performed with single-port laparoscopic access because of technical difficulties. In this report, we present a detailed description of single-port laparoscopic pelvic lymph node dissection with modified radical vaginal hysterectomy in 2 patients with cervical cancer, stage IA2. Combining either classic or modified Schauta radical vaginal hysterectomy with single-port laparoscopic technique could be a good option for the management of patients with cervical cancer.
