A shift toward minimally invasive surgical techniques has been implemented in the surgical management of gynecologic oncology patients. Over the course of 18 months, we have established a single incision laparo-endoscopic surgery program (SILS), and incorporated it in the management of our patients. We sought to assess the operative and postoperative outcomes of these patients in relation to patients who underwent robotic surgery during that same time period at our institution.
