Patients can expect smaller, more cosmetic incisions, less bleeding, less pain, a shorter hospital stay and a quicker return to work or school. The da Vinci Surgical System allows the physician to control “wristed” instruments from a nearby console. These instruments respond directly to the surgeon’s movements. This allows the surgeon to operate on the structure that is abnormal, while sparing delicate nerves to maintain normal function and avoiding injury to blood vessels to minimize bleeding.
