Robotic Surgery Cures Rare Uterine Cancer in 65-Year-Old

Case

A 65-year-old woman with a rare condition—a uterus with two horns—faced a daunting diagnosis: cancer in one horn and pre-cancerous changes in the other. This congenital anomaly, known as a duplicated uterus, is exceptionally uncommon, making her case both complex and unique.

The Approach: 

To address this challenge, we opted for an advanced solution: robotic Firefly-assisted sentinel lymph node removal and complete staging surgery. This advanced technique offered the precision needed to navigate her unusual anatomy while ensuring a thorough, minimally invasive treatment.

The Outcome

The robotic surgery was performed with exceptional precision, completely bloodless, and curative. Thanks to the minimally invasive approach, her recovery was swift and seamless. She was discharged in less than 60 hours with only tiny keyhole incisions covered by adhesive ‘bandaids.’

This case highlights the power of robotic surgery to deliver life-changing results, even in the most complex and rare medical cases.
