Table 1_Robotic resection of a rudimentary horn pregnancy with the Da Vinci system: first

A systematic review by A. Favre-Inhofer presents the first robotic resection of a non-communicating rudimentary horn pregnancy and summarizes 187 cases from 163 publications published from 2000 onward. The review extracted data on patient characteristics, diagnostic modalities, management strategies, and maternal-fetal outcomes following PRISMA 2020 guidelines. The evidence is based primarily on retrospective case reports, which are prone to publication bias and heterogeneity.

Use Cases

• Analyzing maternal mortality rates based on the reported 1.2% mortality rate
• Studying diagnostic challenges based on the finding that most pregnancies were diagnosed intraoperatively
• Evaluating surgical management trends based on the increasing use of minimally invasive procedures
• Investigating placenta accreta spectrum prevalence based on the reported 39% incidence

Strengths

• Systematic review of 187 cases across 163 publications
• Follows PRISMA 2020 guidelines for data extraction
• Includes the first reported robotic-assisted resection of this condition

Limitations

• Evidence is based primarily on retrospective case reports, prone to publication bias and heterogeneity
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
