The da Vinci Surgical System
In the past, surgery for some cancers usually meant a lengthy hospital stay and a long recovery. Today, with robotic technology at MercyOne Genesis, many cancers can be treated as a minimally-invasive procedure.
State-of-the-Art Robotic Technology
The da Vinci Surgical System uses 3D imaging and robotic technology with arms the diameter of a dime to help a surgeon perform precise motions without the need for large open incisions.
Benefits of Minimally Invasive Surgery
A da Vinci surgery typically offers many benefits over traditional surgical procedures, including:
- Less pain
- Less scarring
- A shorter hospital stay
- Lower risk of infection
- Faster return to normal daily activities
