Special Issue "Gynecologic Mini-Invasive Operations: Current Updates and Perspectives"

Dear Colleagues,

Minimally invasive surgery represents, when feasible, the approach of choice to reduce morbidity, complications and length of hospitalization. Additionally, offering the most effective and mini-invasive treatment options is of the utmost importance in gynecological surgery to protect women’s health . These involve endoscopy, laparoscopy, robotics, transvaginal procedures and natural orifice endoscopy.

Surgical advancements regard patients with oncologic and benign conditions, such as pelvic floor disorders, and they have an impact on the patients’ quality of life at different ages. The successful management of these conditions usually requires the work of a team of specialists, the contribution of new technologies, and mini-invasive surgical solutions to minimize complications and reduce postoperative recovery.

Nowadays, these new surgical approaches are offering unprecedented opportunities in the history of gynecological surgery, and it is our responsibility to share our experience and scientific data in order to offer our patients the best possible available management for their conditions. This Special Issue of the Journal of Clinical Medicine is dedicated to offering an overview of new minimally invasive gynecological surgical procedures for women's health. Groups from all specialties are encouraged to submit original research articles and reviews.
