Robot-assisted urologic surgery
When possible, we use robot-assisted surgical techniques. Robotics have revolutionized urological surgery, where the surgical site is often confined to a small area with nerves running through or very near the surgical site that control urination and sexual function. This delicate area requires the utmost precision and control from your surgeon to perform your procedure.
With robot-assisted technology, your surgeon is offered an enhanced view of the surgical site. Additionally, the robotic arms, controlled by your surgeon, provide increased accuracy and dexterity during the procedure. This allows for higher surgery success rates and shorter recovery times.
