Laparoscopic Surgery
General Surgical Applications
The da Vinci® Surgical System allows surgeons to perform complex procedures through 1-2 cm incisions, which means that minimally invasive surgical therapies are now available to millions of patients.
For most patients, minimally invasive procedures performed with the da Vinci Surgical System can offer numerous potential benefits over open-abdominal surgery, including:
- Shorter hospital stay
- Less pain and scarring
- Less risk of wound infections
- Less blood loss and fewer transfusions
- Faster recovery
- Quicker return to normal activities.
The da Vinci Surgical System can also be used across a broad range of general surgical procedures, including bariatric, esophageal and colorectal surgery.
