Robotic Surgery

The da Vinci^® Surgical System is an advanced surgical platform that consists of an ergonomically designed surgeon’s console, a patient cart with 4 articulate robotic arms, a high-performance vision system and patented EndoWrist instruments.

Your surgeon will operate the system while seated at the da Vinci® console. This enables the surgeon to perform delicate and complex operations with high accuracy and dexterity using a forceps-like master control while viewing highly magnified 3D images of the interior of your body.

The robotic arms are inserted through tiny surgical cuts and act as an extension of the surgeon’s arm, mirroring every hand movement and enabling delicate and complex operations to be done safely and accurately.

Robotic surgeries can deliver greatly improved patient benefits compared to traditional laparoscopic or open surgery. These may include:

• Smaller cuts, which means reduced infection risk, less blood loss and minimal post-operative scarring
• Less trauma, which may result in reduced pain, less medication and shorter recovery time
• For many women, a hysterectomy is often followed with feelings of loss and emotional distress. Robotic surgery enables quicker physical healing so patients can focus on emotional healing
