One in three women in the U.S. will have a hysterectomy before she turns 60. While no woman wants to face surgery, today the vast majority of gynecologic conditions - from endometriosis to uterine fibroids, heavy periods to cancer - can now be treated effectively without a big incision. With da Vinci® Surgery, a hysterectomy requires only a few small incisions, so you can get back to life faster - within days rather than the usual weeks required with tranditional surgery.

da Vinci Surgery enables gynecologists to perform the most precise, minimally invasive hysterectomy available today. For most women, da Vinci Hysterectomy offers numerous potential benefits over traditional open surgery, including:

  • Significantly less pain1
  • Less blood loss and need for transfusion1,2
  • Fewer complications1,2
  • Shorter hospital stay1,2
  • Quicker recovery and return to normal activities2
  • Small incisions for minimal scarring 
  • Better outcomes and patient satisfaction, in many cases1

Surpassing the limits of conventional laparoscopic surgery, da Vinci is revolutionizing gynecologic surgery for women. No wonder more and more women are choosing da Vinci Surgery for their hysterectomy.

If you have been putting off surgery to resolve a gynecologic problem, it's time to ask your doctor about da Vinci Surgery.

Learn why da Vinci Hysterectomy may be your best treatment option.

 

While clinical studies support the effectiveness of the da Vinci® System when used in minimally invasive surgery, individual results may vary. Surgery with the da Vinci Surgical System may not be appropriate for every individual. Always ask your doctor about all treatment options, as well as their risks and benefits.
