A review of published studies suggests that potential benefits of using da Vinci robotic technology for these surgeries include:
Patients may experience fewer complications compared to patients who had open and laparoscopic surgery.
Patients may stay in the hospital for a shorter amount of time than patients who had open, laparoscopic, and vaginal surgery.
Surgeons may be less likely to switch to an open procedure when performing surgery with da Vinci, compared to when performing laparoscopic surgery.
With da Vinci, you may have a single or few small incisions compared to an open procedure with one very long incision.
After recovery, with da Vinci you’ll only have one scar around your belly button or a few small scars.
