Robotic Total Hysterectomy

da Vinci Robotic Surgery System

The Future of Healthcare Today

da Vinci Robotic Surgery System - The da Vinci® System's intuitive interface provides breakthrough capabilities, allowing more gynecologic surgeons to use a minimally invasive approach in complex procedures.

Initial studies suggest that the enhanced visualization, dexterity, precision and control offered by the da Vinci System can enable gynecologic surgeons to more easily perform complex, minimally invasive procedures and potentially achieve better clinical outcomes than with conventional laparoscopic surgery.1, 2

Intuitive Surgical is shaping the future of gynecologic surgery with the da Vinci Hysterectomy and da Vinci Myomectomy. Performed with the da Vinci Surgical System, these procedures represent the most advanced minimally invasive approach to gynecologic surgery.

For most patients, minimally invasive procedures performed with the da Vinci Surgical System can offer numerous potential benefits over open surgery, including:

  • Shorter hospital stay
  • Less pain and scarring
  • Less risk of infection
  • Less blood loss and fewer transfusions
  • Faster recovery
  • Quicker return to normal activities.
