Ultrasound-guided robotic myomectomy using a drop-in probe

The authors aim to address the challenge of identifying intramural fibroids during robot-assisted myomectomy, which typically relies on visual assessment due to the lack of tactile feedback. They present a novel technique utilizing a drop-in ultrasound probe to provide real-time imaging during surgery, enhancing the detection of occult fibroids and facilitating more precise enucleation. This approach may improve outcomes in fertility-preserving surgeries involving patients with multiple myomas.
