To evaluate the safety and usefulness of robot-assisted surgery for obese patients, 172 patients who received robot-assisted total hysterectomy for benign and malignant uterine diseases at our hospital from September 2019 to March 2023 were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into two groups: obesity and non-obesity. The obesity group was classified as those with body mass index (BMI) of 30 or more. We retrospectively examined the preparation time and that of the console setup, console time, total operation time from the start of surgery, blood loss, and frequency of perioperative complications.
