Why am I here?

Introduce the concept of robotic surgery to the public

Dispel some common myths about robotic surgery

Hysterectomy factsApproximately 525,000 hysterectomies are

performed each year in the U.S. for non-cancerous conditions

By age 60, 1 in 3 women in the U.S. will have had a hysterectomy

90% are performed for elective benign indicationsFibroidsAbnormal uterine bleedingEndometriosisChronic pelvic pain

Route of SurgeryAbdominalRequires a

large abdominal incision

Usual hospital stay is 2 to 4 nights

6 to 8 weeks of recovery

Vaginal hysterectomyThe entire operation is performed

through the vaginaRequires good access to the uterusMore challenging in patients with prior

abdominal surgery or previous cesarean section

More challenging if the uterus is enlargedLimited visualization of the pelvis and

ovaries

Laparoscopic hysterectomyBetter visualizationShorter hospitalizationShorter recoveryGood visualization of the pelvic

organsCan be performed in a wide variety

of patientsTraditional laparoscopy requires a

unique skill set and commitment to the procedure

da Vinci® S Robotic Platform

da Vinci® Surgery (Minimally Invasive)

Robotic PlatformGeneral thoughts

A tool Not new surgery or procedure

A tool that makes minimally invasive surgery easier

Advantages of robotic surgeryMuch improved 3D visualization over

traditional laparoscopyKeep in mind, that traditional laparoscopy

was still better than open surgeryFull wristing instruments with 7 degrees

range of motionComplete surgical control of the operative

instrumentsMimics the hand movements of open surgery

SummaryThe addition of computer technology into the

operating arena is a natural evolution and progress

The addition of robotic platform for surgery is a continuation of this progress

Man’s tools continue to add great value to our lives

This tool will greatly reduce or nearly eliminate the need for open surgery

The societal benefits of a surgical platform are vast and numerous
