In the researchers' words

Data across literature suggest that robotic surgery may offer benefit specifically in patient with morbid obesity with endometrial cancer, but to date no randomized trials have been conducted to confirm these observations. This randomized controlled multicentric trial aims to evaluate the most appropriate minimally invasive surgical approach in morbidly obese (BMI \>= 30) patients with endometrial carcinoma.
