The advent of robotic surgery has opened the door to many
exciting new possibilities for minimally invasive surgery
for children. With the da Vinci ® S Surgical
System, the surgeon only needs to make small incisions, which
translates into decreased blood loss, reduced postoperative
pain and a quicker recovery from surgery. These benefits
are particularly important for active children who are eager
to get back to their normal daily routines. And, quicker
recovery time means less time spent in the hospital following
surgery, reducing emotional stress levels for children — and
their parents. The pediatric urology procedures performed
robotically include ureteropelvic junction obstruction, pyeloplasty,
orchiepexy and nephrectomy.
