da Vinci Hysterectomy

When medication and non-invasive procedures are unable to relieve symptoms, surgery remains the accepted and most effective treatment for a range of gynecologic conditions.

Women undergoing hysterectomy surgery may be a candidate for a very effective, less invasive surgical procedure called da Vinci Hysterectomy.

This procedure uses a state-of-the-art surgical sytem designed to help your doctor perform the most precise and least invasive hysterectomy available.

For most patients, da Vinci Hysterectomy offers numerous potential benefits over open hysterectomy including:

  • Less pain
  • Minimal blood loss and need for transfusion
  • Fewer complications
  • Small incisions for minimal scarring
  • Shorter hospital stay
  • Quicker recovery than traditional open surgery

The technology provides surgeons with superior visualization, enhanced dexterity, greater precision and ergonomic comfort.

It also makes it possible for more surgeons to perform minimally invasive procedures involving complex dissection or reconstruction. These enhancements ultimately raise the standard of care for complex surgeries, creating greater benefits for you, the patient.


As with any surgical procedure, indivudual results may vary. Benefits of minimally invasive surgery cannot be guaranteed as surgery is both patient and procedure specific.
