Robotic Assisted Surgery for Gynecologic Conditions

PIH Health gynecologists use one of the most advanced robotic technologies, the Da Vinci XI Surgical System, for treating gynecologic conditions such as severe pelvic pain, endometriosis, fibroids, abnormal bleeding, pelvic organ prolapse and certain cancers.

Surgical procedures involving the internal female reproductive system, which includes the uterus (womb), ovaries, fallopian tubes, cervix, and vagina that were previously difficult to perform using traditional surgical methods have become more accurate and effective through the use of robotic assisted surgery. Surgeons have a greater range of motion, precise control of the instruments and 3-dimensional high-definition views magnified 10 times to what the human eye sees.

There are also several benefits in using robotic surgery for the patient that include:

• Minimally invasive
• Shorter hospital stays
• Quicker recovery
• Reduction in postoperative pain symptoms
• More effective management of health conditions
• Rapid Recovery Program – Offers the chance to go home the same day after robotic assisted surgery
