Meet the da Vinci Robotic Surgical System

Physicians are usually successful at treating a variety of different medical conditions with surgery. In spite of growing demand for minimally invasive procedures, the majority of these operations are still performed using large incisions in the body. These surgeries typically result in significant blood loss, and may mean several days in the hospital followed by weeks of recovery time.

Today, a less invasive surgical treatment option is available at Florida Hospital. If your doctor recommends surgery for a specific condition, you may be a candidate for minimally invasive procedure using the da Vinci Robotic System.

These procedures use the state-of-the-art da Vinci Robotic System, designed to help your surgeon perform a more precise, less invasive procedure. For most patients, minimally invasive procedures performed with the da Vinci System can offer numerous potential benefits over traditional 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.

 

At Florida Hospital, gynecologic oncologists are currently using the da Vinci Robotic Surgical System to treat conditions in the following conditions:

·           Hysterectomy for the treatment of endometrial and cervical cancer, as well as endometriosis or uterine leiomyoma
