da Vinci Surgery for Hysterectomy

If your doctor recommends hysterectomy, you may be a candidate for da Vinci hysterectomy, one of the most effective, least invasive treatment options for a range of uterine conditions. da Vinci hysterectomy is performed using the da Vinci® Surgical System, which enables surgeons to perform with unmatched precision and control – using only a few small incisions.

da Vinci hysterectomy offers numerous potential benefits over traditional approaches to vaginal, laparoscopic or open abdominal hysterectomy, particularly when performing more challenging procedures like radical hysterectomy for gynecologic cancer.  Potential benefits include:
  • Significantly less pain
  • Less blood loss
  • Fewer complications
  • Less scarring
  • A shorter hospital stay
  • A faster return to normal daily activities
