For complex hysterectomies with anticipated scarring from previous surgery, adhesions or endometriosis, robot-assisted surgery with the da Vinci Surgical System is often the most effective, least invasive treatment option. Through tiny, 1-2 cm incisions, Drs. Brown and McCool can operate with greater precision and control, minimizing the pain and risk associated with large incisions while increasing the likelihood of a fast recovery and excellent clinical outcomes. Robot-assisted hysterectomy also allows them better visualization of anatomy, which is especially critical when working around delicate and confined structures like the bladder. Both physicians are trained, certified and experienced in utilizing robotic-assisted surgical systems to perform hysterectomy.

Potential benefits include: 

• Significantly less pain
• Less blood loss
• Fewer complications
• Less scarring
• A shorter hospital stay
• A faster return to normal daily activities
