Mortality Rates in Laparoscopic and Robotic Gynecologic Oncology Surgery: A Systemic Review and Meta-analysis

ConclusionThe overall operative mortality for minimally invasive surgery in gynecologic oncology is 1 in 381 (95% CI, 1:306–1:474). For patients with early cervical cancer, it is 1:2049 (95% CI, 1:356–1: 11832), for endometrial cancer with node dissection it is 1:195 (95% CI, 1:109–1:349), and for ovarian cancer it is 1 in 685 (95% CI, 1:44–1:10 971). There is no difference between the type of MIS approach for patients undergoing any type of gynecologic oncology surgery.
