Robotic Surgery

Robotic surgery is a form of a minimally invasive laparoscopic technique during which small body incisions are used for placement of surgical instruments.  These instruments are attached to robotic arms, allowing a surgeon maximum range and precision of motion during the procedure. A  high-definition, three-dimensional camera with enhanced visualization allows the surgeon for precise magnification and guidance during the procedure. The surgeon controls the instruments and camera at a robotic console in the operating room. 

​Benefits of Robotic Surgery 

• Smaller incisions - less surgical trauma/ smaller scars
• More precise anatomical dissection
• Faster recovery times compared with traditional open surgery
• Magnified view of the surgical field:  accurate depth perception and sharper image
• Robotic arms and instruments simplify the most complex movements during surgery
  

Dr. Mishail has been successfully performing surgeries with the use of Da Vinci robot.  

These procedures include:

• Radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer
• Partial nephrectomy and radical nephrectomy for kidney cancer
• Pyeloplasty (UPJ repair) for ureteral obstruction
• Sacrocolpopexy for pelvic organ prolapse
• Ureteral reimplantation for ureteral disorders
• Robotic bladder surgery for bladder diverticulum disease and other urinary bladder disorders
