    Robotic-assisted surgery achieved a 100% ovarian-sparing rate in pediatric patients, compared to 85.7% in the pre-robotic cohort.

  • 2

    No conversions to open surgery occurred in the robotic cohort, while two conversions happened in the pre-robotic group.

  • 3

    Operative time was longer in the robotic cohort, with a median of 2:27:30 compared to 1:42:00 in the pre-robotic cohort.

  • 4

    Postoperative opioid rescue therapy was significantly less frequent in the robotic cohort at 10% versus 50% in the pre-robotic cohort.

  • 5

    Robotic-assisted surgery demonstrated no intraoperative complications or surgical site infections in the pediatric cohort.
