Robotic versus standard laparoscopic surgery for early endometrial cancer in obese patients

This trial is testing whether robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery offers any advantages over conventional laparoscopic surgery for treating early-stage endometrial cancer in patients with obesity. Both approaches are minimally invasive alternatives to traditional open surgery, but the study will compare which technique provides better short-term recovery, fewer complications, and equivalent cancer control.

Endometrial cancer is increasingly common, especially in people with obesity, and obesity can make surgery riskier and more challenging. While minimally invasive surgical techniques are proven to be safer than open surgery even in obese patients, it's still unclear whether the newer robotic approach offers real advantages over standard laparoscopic surgery in this population.
