Presentation Transcript

  1. Recent statistics by The American Cancer Society reveals, “Prostate cancer is the second common cancer in the United States. And each year more than 200,000 men are affected by this disease”.

  2. Whatever the stage of cancer, there are many surgical treatment options available to help patients cope with the cancer and to overcome it. Among them, the “da Vinci Robotic Surgery” offers a less invasive surgical option to many patients facing urologic surgery.

  3. Surgeons have used da Vinci Robotic surgical system successfully in approximately 1.5 million various surgical procedures to date.

  4. Robotic-assisted surgery uses a 3D highly magnified camera allowing a better view of the area being operated on. The robot minimizes the doctor’s movements which leads to the surgery becoming more precise with smaller incisions.

  5. Compared to other traditional surgical procedures, the da Vinci robotic system offers several advantages, a few are discussed below.

  6. Better Accuracy, Flexibility and Control Surgical robots are self-powered, computer-controlled devices that can be programmed to assist in the positioning and function of surgical instruments. This provides surgeons to perform urological surgery with better accuracy, flexibility and control.

  7. Clinically Superior Results The robotic surgical system allows the surgeon to avoid damaging/cutting healthy prostate tissue, which improves superior results and thus minimize scar tissue build up.

  8. Quicker Recovery Period The robotic surgical system utilizes less invasive techniques requiring 4 to 5 small incisions, each less than two inches. These smaller incisions will heal significantly faster than the large incisions needed in traditional surgery.

  9. Kansas City Urology Care offers state-of-the-art treatments in a modern facility, so you can get in and out quickly, in a setting that’s relaxing and less stressful than a hospital.
