Plano, TX, August 23, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Dr. Dennis Eisenberg of Plano, Texas, a pioneer in the use of the robotic hysterectomy surgical technique, recently completed Medical Center Plano's first hysterectomy surgery using the new DaVinci Si machine. Dr. Eisenberg was assisted on this surgery by fellow robotic surgeon Dr. Murray Fox.
The DaVinci Si machine has an 8mm camera, the smallest camera that has ever been used for a robotic hysterectomy. The benefit for patients of the smaller camera offered by the new machine at Medical Center Plano is that it requires a smaller incision. This makes robotic hysterectomies performed with DaVinci Si machine even less invasive than the procedure already is.
According to Dr. Eisenberg, the patient “recovered and went home the next morning on Advil,” despite having additional procedures done.
Traditional hysterectomies typically demand long recovery and healing periods after the procedure is performed. Technological advancements like the advent of the robotic hysterectomy, which allow a for a hysterectomy to be performed using robotic micro-instruments that translate the precise movements of the surgeons’ hands while filtering out even the slightest tremors, have significantly reduced recovery times for patients.
Furthermore, robotic surgery has been proven to have unmatched precision and control, even with the smaller incisions that are necessary. High-definition, magnified 3D imaging allows for optimum viewing and manipulation of sensitive nerves, blood vessels and tissues.
Still, not all gynecological practices have adopted the DaVinci robotic hysterectomy surgery technique, despite how revolutionary a treatment option it has proven to be. “It will only be a matter of time until the robotic way is the only way,” explained Dr. Fox. “I’ve seen the difference it has made in hundreds of patients that walk through the Women’s Specialists of Plano doors. It is revolutionary to say the least.”
