Robotic Surgery for Endometriosis | BSGE Conference

Advancing Endometriosis Care: Insights from the BSGE Conference

It was an honour to speak at the BSGE Conference in London alongside leading experts in minimally invasive gynaecology and endometriosis care.

The discussions focused on the challenges of thoracic endometriosis and the evolving role of robotic surgery in managing complex gynaecological disease. Thoracic endometriosis remains a highly specialised condition that often requires multidisciplinary collaboration between gynaecologists, thoracic surgeons, and imaging specialists.

A key theme of the conference was how robotic surgery for endometriosis is transforming complex procedures through enhanced precision, improved visualisation, and minimally invasive techniques. In selected patients, robotic-assisted surgery may support faster recovery, reduced postoperative discomfort, and improved surgical access in advanced disease.

Beyond technology, the conference highlighted the importance of collaboration, research, and continued innovation to improve patient outcomes in women’s health.

Looking forward to continuing these important discussions at the next BSGE Annual Scientific Meeting in Bristol.
