Da Vinci Surgery

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

Having to have surgery is an unpleasant thought for most people. Reasons why people are anxious about having surgery are the prospect of pain, time out of work or away from normal activities and possible complications.

Obvious to everyone is that technology is changing at an incredible pace. These changes are evident in the surgical realm as well. The da Vinci surgical system for performing minimally invasive surgery is one such advance in surgical technology. The advantages of da Vinci surgery over traditional surgery include much less post operative pain, quicker recovery and fewer complications.

Gynecological proceedures performed with the da Vinci system include hysterectomy (with or without removal of the fallopian tubes and ovaries), myomectomy (removal of fibroid tumors), removal of benign ovarian tumors and correction of vaginal prolapse.
