Patients with complex or recurrent endometriosis now have access to robotic excision surgery through Lotus Endometriosis Institute's California locations.
-- Led by quadruple board-certified surgeon Dr. Steven Vasilev, Lotus Endometriosis Institute is now offering robotic excision surgery designed for patients whose endometriosis is complex, recurrent, or has resisted previous treatment.

According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, endometriosis affects more than 11% of American women between the ages of 15 and 44, and many continue to experience symptoms even after surgery, particularly when the disease has spread to the bowel, bladder, ureters, or diaphragm. Recurrent and incomplete excision remain common challenges in standard care settings. In response, Lotus Endometriosis Institute has built its surgical program around complex and re-operative cases, combining oncology-level surgical training with a robotic, minimally invasive approach suited to precision work in densely scarred or anatomically difficult areas.
"Endometriosis excision surgery removes the disease at its root rather than cauterizing the surface, an approach considered the gold standard for more durable symptom relief, including reduced pelvic pain, painful periods, and bowel or bladder irritation," explains an institute spokesperson. "Surgery is performed robotically, using three-dimensional optics and wristed instruments that allow for greater precision than standard laparoscopy, which may translate into fewer complications and faster recovery, even in advanced or previously operated cases."
For patients with adenomyosis, the institute offers hysterectomy as a definitive treatment when fertility is no longer a goal. Ovarian cystectomy is available for symptomatic cysts, including endometriomas, with techniques aimed at preserving healthy ovarian tissue and function. In the most advanced situations, where endometriosis has progressed toward malignant degeneration or involves multiple organs, the institute provides cytoreduction, a more extensive procedure focused on removing as much diseased tissue as possible.
The institute representative highlights that each surgical plan is individualized based on where and how extensively the disease has spread, accounting for age, fertility goals, and genetic risk factors. Conservative excision is used where preserving fertility is a priority, while more definitive procedures are offered for patients who have completed family planning.
Lotus Endometriosis Institute operates locations in Santa Monica and Arroyo Grande, California, and accepts out-of-state patients for surgical evaluation.
