AB Minimally  invasive  surgery  is  currently  considered  a  safe  and  viable  option  in  the  management  of  most  gynecologic  malignancies.  Compared  to  standard  laparotomy,  laparoscopic  or  robotic  surgery  is  associated  with  lower  blood  loss  and  transfusion  rates,  lower  intraoperative  complication  rates,  decreased  analgesic  requirements  in  the  immediate  postoperative  period,  shorter  length  of  hospitalization,  lower  postoperative  complication  rates,  quicker  return  of  bowel  function,  and  improved  short-term  quality  of  life.
