Abstract

The increased confirmation of endometriosis noted using robotically assisted laparoscopy may be the result of multiple factors, including the three-dimensional view provided with the robot, increased attention and awareness while using new technology, increased time spent considering histologic documentation in preparation for publication, or general improvement with experience.
