Uterus transplantation is barely a decade old and in a young, evolving field it is hard to identify "technological advances" since it is, in of itself, a technological advance. Nonetheless, one can still identify advances in diagnostic imaging that have improved donor screening to avoid graft losses, highlight the adoption of robotic surgery to make the living donor uterus procurement more minimally invasive, and look to a future of biotechnology like perfusion pumps and bioengineering such as synthetic uterus to increase donor supply. Additional technologies are on the horizon and promise to shape the field further.
