da Vinci® means you don't have to put your life on hold
Operating with a more accurate, less invasive tool translates into tremendous benefits for patients when compared to traditional surgery. Because surgeons can perform complex surgeries through just a few tiny incisions (1-2cm), da Vinci-enabled surgery can benefit patients in the following ways:
- Reduced pain and discomfort
- Reduced risk of complications
- Shorter hospital stay and faster recovery
- Less blood loss
- Less scarring
For example, without da Vinci-assisted surgery, a complex hysterectomy generally requires a large incision and an extended recovery time. Eligible hysterectomies may now only require incisions 1-2 cm in length, facilitating a faster, easier recovery, and a quick return to normal daily activities.
