What is Da Vinci Robotic Prostatectomy?
Thanks to breakthroughs in surgical technology, surgeons now widely offer a robotic assisted and minimally invasive option for prostatectomy, the Da Vinci Prostatectomy. This procedure has the potential for significantly less pain, a shorter hospital stay, and faster return to normal daily activities. Overall, the Davinci Prostatectomy does have the potential for better clinical outcomes. In addition, choosing to uses the robotic assisted approach further minimizes the physical and emotional impact of surgery on patients.
By dramatically enhancing dexterity, precision, control and visualization, the Da Vinci Robotics System overcomes the limitations of traditional laparoscopic technology. Helping physicians to perform complex surgery in a manner never before experienced. The Da Vinci Surgical System extends the surgeon’s capabilities to provide these significant benefits:
Enhanced 3D view of the operating area
Improved dexterity
Greater surgical precision
Improved access
Increased range of motion
Reproducibility
By enhancing surgical capabilities, da Vinci Surgery offers a number of potential benefits, including:
Less pain following the operation
Less risk of infection
Less anesthesia
Less blood loss
Shorter hospital stay
Faster and more complete recovery
Quicker return to normal daily activities
It is important to know that a Da Vinci robotic prostatectomy surgery does not place a robot at the controls; your surgeon is controlling every aspect of the surgery with the assistance of the da Vinci robotics platform.
