Northwestern Memorial Hospital Logo
Northwestern Memorial Hospital has a mission to put patients first, and part of accomplishing that goal is staffing highly trained and qualified physicians and staff and using groundbreaking, state-of-the-art medical technology. Since 2000, surgeons at Northwestern Memorial have been using a robotic device to perform minimally invasive surgery for gynecologic, gynecology oncologic, thoracic, and urologic procedures. The robotic device, called the da Vinci® Surgical System, is a viable, effective, minimally invasive option for many patients facing surgery.
The da Vinci® Surgical System provides surgeons with an alternative to both traditional open surgery and conventional laparoscopy through the use of a state-of-the-art robotic platform. The System enables surgeons to precisely perform even the most complex and delicate procedures through very small incisions. It gives surgeons superior visualization of the procedure, allows enhanced dexterity, control, and precision, and offers superior ergonomics, all which enable surgeons to perform procedures in a manner never before experienced.
There are many potential benefits of robotic surgery over traditional surgery, which may include:
