 The robotic technique has allowed surgeons to offer a minimally invasive approach to their gynecology patient. Utilizing robotic technology, surgeons can treat some of gynecology's most complex problems including:
- Removal of fibroid tumors (myomectomy)
- Removal of the uterus (hysterectomy)
- Correction of vaginal prolapse
- Treatment of gynecologic cancers
- Urogynecology
These procedures are usually performed through large abdominal incisions resulting in significant postoperative pain, blood loss and scarring.
