Predictors of Prolonged Operative Time for Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Myomectomy: Development of a Preoperative Calculator for Total Operative Time.
To develop a preoperative calculator to predict the total operative time (TOT) for robotic-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy (RALM). ⋯ RALM is becoming a more popular surgical approach for the management of uterine myomas. Preoperative radiographic evaluation and a thorough patient history may enhance patient counseling and surgical planning. Uterine volume and myoma number and size appear to be more predictive of TOT compared with myoma location.
