Abstract

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programs aim to expedite functional recovery and improve surgical outcomes without increasing complications or cost. First championed by colorectal surgeons, ERAS protocols are now widely utilized among surgical subspecialties. The present review focuses on use of ERAS pathways in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery (MIGS) and risk factors for suboptimal outcomes in this population.
