Background and Purpose: With the rapid development of minimally invasive technique

robotic surgery is widely used in the gynecological surgery. This study aimed to compare the clinical data of roboticassisted laparoscopy and laparotomy in the treatment of early ovarian cancer. Methods: A total of 22 patients with early ovarian cancer receiving stage Ⅰ operation between Jan. 2015 and Dec. 2016 in Jilin Province Tumor Hospital were randomly divided into two groups: 8 patients received robotic-assisted surgery (robotic-assisted laparoscopic group)

14 patients received laparotomy (laparotomy group). Results: All patients underwent successful operation without changing surgical approach. The operation time in robotic-assisted laparoscopic group was longer than that in laparotomy group ［(194.50±10.90) min vs (178.71±10.58) min

P0.05］. Blood loss volume ［(60.10±8.88) mL vs (73.71±12.99) mL］

24 hours postoperative drainage volumes of robotic-assisted laparoscopic group were less than those in laparotomy group ［(96.88±10.21) mL vs (108.00±11.43) mL

P0.05］. Others had no statistical significance (P0.05). Conclusion: In the clinical treatment of early ovarian cancer

there is no difference between robotic-assisted laparoscopic operation and laparotomy. Robotic-assisted laparoscopic operation is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
