Lotus Endometriosis Institute is announcing advanced robotic excision surgery for complex endometriosis, adapting the surgical approach to the complexity of each case and the outcomes that matter most to the patient.

Arroyo Grande, United States, October 11, 2026 /PressCable/ -- Lotus Endometriosis Institute has announced robotic excision surgery for patients with complex endometriosis, including advanced and re-operative cases. Led by Dr. Steve Vasilev, the service adapts surgical planning to the location and extent of disease, previous treatment, fertility considerations, and each patient’s individual health goals.

The announcement comes as endometriosis continues to affect millions of women across the United States. According to a 2026 update published by StatPearls through the National Library of Medicine, approximately 9 million females in the U.S. have endometriosis, with cases ranging from relatively limited disease to complex involvement of multiple organs.
Endometriosis can affect different areas of the body, creating very different surgical challenges from one patient to another. Disease may involve the ovaries, fallopian tubes, bladder, bowel, appendix, diaphragm, pelvic nerves, and other structures, while previous operations can further alter anatomy.
Lotus uses robotic excision as its surgical approach, with three-dimensional visualization and articulated instruments supporting precise dissection in complex abdominal and pelvic anatomy. Depending on the individual case, planning may prioritize fertility and organ preservation or involve more extensive procedures when clinically appropriate.
Dr. Vasilev brings more than 30 years of surgical experience to this work. He is quadruple board-certified, fellowship-trained in gynecologic oncology, and experienced in minimally invasive robotic surgery involving complex pelvic anatomy.
“Endometriosis surgery has to be planned around the individual patient and the disease we are treating,” said Dr. Vasilev. “The location and extent of disease, previous procedures, fertility goals, and preservation of healthy function all influence how we approach excision.”
For patients with complex endometriosis, personalized surgical planning allows treatment decisions to account for more than the presence of disease alone. Considering reproductive goals, affected organs, previous treatment, and long-term function can help align surgery with what matters most to the individual patient.
Lotus Endometriosis Institute combines minimally invasive and robotic excision surgery with personalized recovery planning. Its care model considers nutrition, hormonal balance, stress modulation, and other factors that may influence long-term recovery.
