Sexual, bladder, bowel and ovarian function 1  year after robot‐assisted radical hysterectomy for early‐stage cervical cancer

ConclusionsIn our study, RRH was associated with minor sexual dysfunction. RRH may facilitate the preservation of posterior branches from the hypogastric nerve that are important for arousal and orgasm. Bladder problems and lymphedema remain the most frequently reported sequelae. Women with preserved ovaries after RRH may have an early onset of menopause.
