da Vinci Robotic Surgery
da Vinci Robotic Surgery
The Technology
The da Vinci robotic-assisted surgery system is used for minimally invasive procedures and is well-matched for gynecological field. The system translates your surgeon’s hand movements at the console in real time, bending and rotating the instruments while performing the procedure. The tiny wristed instruments move like a human hand, but with a greater range of motion. The instrument size makes it possible for surgeons to operate through one or a few small incisions.
Procedures
Robotic-assisted gynecologic procedures include:
- Hysterectomy
- Pelvic organ prolapse surgery
- Myomectomy
- Endometriosis resection
Benefits
Benefits of the minimally invasive da Vinci system that requires tiny incisions include:
- Less pain
- Less bleeding
- Lower risk of infection
- Shorter recovery time
- Faster return to normal activity
- More precision
- Minimal scarring
During and After Surgery
- With a robotic surgery, the procedure itself takes less time than traditional surgery
- You’ll spend one-two hours in recovery post-op
- Your recovery time will be shorter than traditional surgery, since it was less invasive
- You’ll be able to return to every-day activities within two-three weeks
- Other activities will be based on doctor’s orders
