What is robotic surgery?

Robotic surgery is a minimally invasive surgical approach that uses advanced robotic technology to assist your surgeon during an operation. The system translates the surgeon’s hand movements into precise, controlled actions of tiny instruments inside your body. A high-definition, 3D camera provides a magnified view of the surgical site, allowing for unmatched accuracy and control.

What conditions can robotic surgery treat?

At Southern OBGYN, robotic surgery is used to treat a variety of gynecologic conditions, including:

• Uterine fibroids
• Endometriosis
• Abnormal uterine bleeding
• Pelvic organ prolapse
• Certain types of gynecologic cancers
• Ovarian cysts
• Benign tumors

Your provider will determine if robotic-assisted surgery is the best option based on your diagnosis, medical history, and personal preferences.

What are the benefits of robotic surgery?

Compared to traditional open surgery, robotic-assisted procedures often provide:

• Smaller incisions and minimal scarring
• Less pain and discomfort after surgery
• Reduced blood loss during the procedure
• Lower risk of infection
• Shorter hospital stays
• Faster recovery and return to daily activities
  

For many patients, these benefits lead to an overall smoother and more comfortable surgical experience.

What happens during a robotic surgery?

During the procedure, your surgeon operates from a console in the same room, controlling robotic arms equipped with surgical instruments. The robotic system offers an enhanced range of motion, enabling complex movements in tight spaces that would be difficult with traditional techniques. Throughout the surgery, your surgeon remains in full control of every movement.
