da Vinci Myomectomy
Robot Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery
If your doctor recommends surgical treatment for uterine fibroids, you may be a candidate for da Vinci Myomectomy, a new, less invasive surgical procedure than traditional myomectomy. This procedure uses the da Vinci Surgical System, a state-of-the-art surgical system designed to help your surgeon perform a more precise, minimally invasive procedure designed to preserve the uterus.

For most women, da Vinci Myomectomy offers numerous potential benefits over traditional surgical treatments for uterine fibroids, including:

• Shorter hospital stay
• Less pain
• Less risk of wound infection
• Less blood loss and need for blood transfusions
• Less scarring
• Faster recovery and quicker return to normal activities
• Uterine preservation

As with any surgery, these benefits cannot be guaranteed, as surgery is both patient- and procedure-specific. While myomectomy performed using the da Vinci Surgical System are considered safe and effective, these procedures may not be appropriate for every individual. Always ask your doctor about all treatment options, as well as their risks and benefits.
