Gynecologic Surgery

When medication and non-invasive procedures are unable to relieve symptoms, surgery remains the accepted and most effective treatment for a range of gynecologic conditions. These conditions may include:

  • cervical and uterine cancer
  • uterine fibroids
  • endometriosis
  • uterine prolapse
  • menorrhagia or excessive bleeding

Traditional gynecologic surgery uses a large incision. This type of open surgery may cause significant pain, trauma, and a long recovery period.

Less Invasive

For complex hysterectomies and other gynecologic procedures, robot-assisted surgery with the da Vinci® Surgical System may be the most effective, least invasive treatment option. Through tiny, 1-2 cm incisions, surgeons using the da Vinci System can operate with greater precision and control.

Procedures performed with the da Vinci® Surgical System:

  • Hysterectomy - surgical removal of the uterus and/or other reproductive organs
  • Myomectomy - surgical removal of uterine fibroids
  • Sacrocolpopexy - surgery for uterine or vaginal vault prolapse

The American Institute of Minimally Invasive Surgery (AIMIS) has awarded Doctors Hospital as a Center of Excellence in Women’s Health Surgery.

A hospital can be recognized as a Center for Excellence once it meets minimally-invasive surgery standards and outcomes as defined by AIMIS.

The designation represents Doctors Hospital’s commitment to offering expert surgical care and new and proven medical technologies, including the da Vinci robotic surgical system. Patients that have robotic-assisted surgery experience:

  • - Reduced hospital stays
  • - Less pain and scarring
  • - Faster recovery time than those undergoing traditional surgery.
