Robotic Assisted Hysterectomy

Richard J. Cardosi, MD, FACOG, FACS, is a board-certified gynecologic oncologist with Watson Clinic in Lakeland, Florida. He was the first gynecologic oncologist in the area to utilize the da Vinci robotic system for hysterectomies and advanced gynecologic cancer surgeries.

The da Vinci robotic system is designed to perform hysterectomies and other advanced gynecologic surgical procedures in a minimally invasive manner, resulting in a faster healing time, less discomfort and scarring, and a quicker recovery to normal activity.

During the procedure, a robot with mechanical arms is positioned by the patients bedside. Surgical tools are attached to the arms and inserted through very small incisions in a woman's abdomen. The surgeon remains in complete control of the procedure every step of the way. Dr. Cardosi directs the robotic arms with specialized hand controls while sitting at a console from which he views the operating field in 3-D.

Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (RALH)

Hysterectomy, the surgical removal of the uterus, is a recommended intervention in variety of gynecologic conditions. In the past, the only available option for hysterectomy was an open abdominal surgery.
The incision would be made in either bikini or up-and-down fashion, the uterus would be removed, and abdomen closed in multiple layers with sutures and staples.

However, with the advent of better optics and laparoscopic instruments, the era of laparoscopic hysterectomy has come to age. Robot-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy (RALH) utilizes the same laparoscopic principles combined with the improved visualization of the surgical field and enhanced manipulation of robotic instruments.

This video provides an explanation of the Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (RALH) procedure and the benefits it provides to patients.
