At USMD Hospital at Arlington, we take pride in using the most advanced and optimal minimally invasive technologies. Our colorectal surgeons can perform some procedures using endoscopic and laparoscopic techniques, which require smaller incisions, shortening recovery time and cutting down the chances of possible complications. Some colon and rectal surgeries can even be performed using our robotic da Vinci Surgical Systems. Please discuss your options for surgery with your colorectal surgeon before your procedure.
