Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery (MIGS) has become the standard of care for many gynecologic conditions, including fibroids, endometriosis, benign adnexal masses, and early-stage endometrial cancer. Studies increasingly demonstrate that MIGS is associated with shorter hospital stays, lower complication rates, and quicker recovery, particularly among well-selected patient populations.
This Special Issue aims to highlight the evolving landscape of MIGS, with a focus on improving patient outcomes, refining surgical techniques, and identifying predictors of perioperative risk. From preoperative assessments to perioperative strategies. this issue seeks to provide a comprehensive overview of both the clinical efficacy and systemic integration of MIGS.
We welcome submissions of original research articles, reviews, and clinical insights from researchers, clinicians, and industry experts. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Risk prediction and patient stratification
- Surgical innovations and robotic approaches
- Preoperative and postoperative management strategies
We look forward to your contributions to this Special Issue, which aims to inform, inspire, and advance the future of minimally invasive gynecologic surgery.
Dr. Raanan Meyer
Guest Editor
