In the field of adnexal surgeries in children, robotic surgery seems to make easier the realization of minimal invasive surgery. It could lead to a decrease of post-surgical adherences and therefore preserve the fertility of young patients. We report the first paratubal cystectomy performed using robotic assistance on a child in order to preserve her future fertility and discuss advantages and disadvantages of this technology.
