Résumé
The benefits of minimally-invasive surgeries have been documented, and they have been established as the preferred approach for gynecological surgeries. With the development of robotic surgery, many highly complex surgeries can benefit from these advantages. Due to the complexity of aortocaval lymphadenectomy, surgical technique protocols have been described to reduce risks by maximizing benefits. We describe the technique using five ports (4 robotic arms and an assistant) to work the upper abdominal field, and different instruments recommended in each of their positions to reduce errors and optimize surgical time. After the "step by step" description, we summarize indications of aortocaval lymphadenectomy for every gynecological cancer in different stages.
