      abstract = {Minimally invasive surgery has emerged as the standard  treatment for many gynecologic diseases and conditions. In  the past decade, numerous studies have demonstrated the  superiority of laparoscopic approaches over standard open  procedures in terms of improved quality of life for  patients. Innovations in minimally invasive surgical  technologysuch as multichannel ports, articulating  instruments, and flexible high-definition endoscopeshave  made it possible for laparoscopic surgeons to perform  increasingly complicated gynecologic surgeries through  smaller incisions. As such, since the first edition of the  atlas published in 2014, technologies and techniques once  considered novel have become standard. This second edition  of the Atlas of Robotic, Conventional, and Single-Port  Laparoscopy: A Practical Approach in Gynecology, with five  new chapters and content updated throughout to reflect the  latest evolutions in the field, serves as a guide in  robotic, conventional, and single-port laparoscopic  surgery, presenting invaluable, up-to-date information  about instrumentation, surgical technique, port systems,  and the current research and development in robotics.  Chapters address unique challenges associated with each  technique, such as lack of haptic feedback or articulation  and instrument crowding, and describe the advanced  laparoscopic skills required to safely and efficiently  perform procedures, such as how to move and control a  flexible camera or use the robot. Specific topics include  conventional laparoscopic myomectomy, adnexal surgery,  total and supracervical hysterectomy, and excision of  endometriosis excision, as well as related techniques in  gynecologic oncology, urogynecology and pelvic  reconstructive surgery, tubal surgery and ectopic  pregnancy, isthmocele repair, and trachelectomy for early  cervical cancer. For single-port laparoscopic techniques,  chapters are presented on adnexal surgery, hysterectomy,  and gynecologic oncology, while the section on robotic  surgery offers guidance on instrumentation, platforms, and  basic principles; robotic-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy,  total hysterectomy for benign disease, endometriosis  management, and total hysterectomy for cancer; as well as  techniques for robotic adnexal surgery,  urogynecology/pelvic reconstructive surgery, tubal surgery,  and complication management, concluding with a review of  new and emerging technologies. For students, residents,  fellows, operating room personnel, and practicing  gynecologic surgeons, the editors share experience amassed  while developing novel surgical instrumentation and  collaborating on presentations for numerous worldwide  events. Internationally renowned experts contribute as well  to this practical, illustrated resource on current  minimally invasive techniques in gynecologic surgery.},
