The da Vinci Robotic surgical system enables surgeons to perform even the most complex and delicate procedures through very small incisions with unmatched precision. For more, visit http://www.kcurology.com/
Robotics in Surgery - An Alternative for Urologic Surgery
1.
2. Recent statistics by The American Cancer Society reveals, “Prostate cancer is
the second common cancer in the United States. And each year more than
200,000 men are affected by this disease”.
3. Whatever the stage of cancer, there are many surgical treatment options
available to help patients cope with the cancer and to overcome it. Among
them, the “da Vinci Robotic Surgery” offers a less invasive surgical option to
many patients facing urologic surgery.
4. Surgeons have used da Vinci Robotic surgical system successfully in
approximately 1.5 million various surgical procedures to date.
5. Robotic-assisted surgery uses a 3D highly magnified camera allowing a
better view of the area being operated on. The robot minimizes the
doctor’s movements which leads to the surgery becoming more precise
with smaller incisions.
6. Compared to other traditional surgical procedures, the da Vinci robotic
system offers several advantages, a few are discussed below.
7. Better Accuracy, Flexibility and Control
Surgical robots are self-powered, computer-controlled devices that can be
programmed to assist in the positioning and function of surgical
instruments. This provides surgeons to perform urological surgery with
better accuracy, flexibility and control.
8. Clinically Superior Results
The robotic surgical system allows the surgeon to avoid damaging/cutting
healthy prostate tissue, which improves superior results and thus minimize
scar tissue build up.
9. Quicker Recovery Period
The robotic surgical system utilizes less invasive techniques requiring 4 to 5
small incisions, each less than two inches. These smaller incisions will heal
significantly faster than the large incisions needed in traditional surgery.
10. Kansas City Urology Care offers state-of-the-art treatments in
a modern facility, so you can get in and out quickly, in a setting
that’s relaxing and less stressful than a hospital.
