The da Vinci® System's intuitive interface provides breakthrough capabilities, allowing more gynecologic surgeons to use a minimally invasive approach in complex procedures.
The da Vinci Surgical System is a sophisticated robotic platform designed to enable complex surgery using a minimally invasive approach. The da Vinci System consists of an ergonomic surgeon’s console, a patient-side cart with four interactive robotic arms, a high-performance 3D HD vision system and proprietary EndoWrist® instruments. Powered by state-of-the-art robotic technology, the da Vinci System is designed to scale, filter and seamlessly translate the surgeon's hand movements into more precise movements of the EndoWrist instruments. The net result is an intuitive interface with breakthrough surgical capabilities.
The da Vinci Surgical System is designed to provide surgeons with enhanced capabilities, including high definition 3D vision and a magnified view. Your doctor controls the da Vinci System which translates her hand movement into smaller, more precise movements of tiny instruments inside your body.
Though it is often called a “robot”, da Vinci cannot act on its own: Instead, the surgery is performed entirely by your doctor. Together, da Vinci technology allows your doctor to perform complex procedures through just a few tiny openings. As a result, you will be able to get back to life faster without the usual recovery following an abdominal incision.

Benefits of The da Vinci® Surgery
- Shorter Hospital stay
- Less pain and scarring
- Less risk of infection
- Less blood loss
- Faster recovery
- Quicker return to normal activities
For the patient, a da Vinci procedure can offer all the potential benefits of a minimally invasive procedure, including less pain, less blood loss and less need for blood transfusions. Moreover, the da Vinci System can enable a shorter hospital stay, a quicker recovery and faster return to normal daily activities. Clinical studies also suggest that the da Vinci System may help surgeons provide better clinical outcomes than conventional technologies allow.

Single Incision Laparoscopy Surgery (SILS)
The latest advancement in surgery, the SILS hysterectomy allows for the removal of the uterus through a small incision made in the belly button. To perform this procedure, a SILS Port (a soft and flexible instrument equipped with three distin ct openings which allows for the use of three surgical devices at the same time) is inserted through an incision in the belly button. When the surgery is complete, the SILS Port is removed from the belly button, leaving one small incision which may not be visible upon healing. Recovery from the SILS hysterectomy may be similar to the two week recovery time associated with laparoscopic hysterectomy; however, laparoscopic hysterectomies require multiple incisions that may result in more pain and scarring.
