da Vinci™ Surgical System for Gynecologic Cancers

The Lacks Cancer Center - West Michigan’s only dedicated cancer hospital - is among a select few hospitals in the world with the capabilities and expertise needed to offer minimally invasive, da Vinci® robotic gynecologic surgery for a broad range of conditions, including uterine, ovarian and endometrial cancers, fibroids, ovarian cysts and other conditions that affect the female reproductive system. Though treatment options are as varied as the conditions themselves, for many this robot-assisted system delivers a surgical solution (hysterectomy) with unmatched precision and minimal invasiveness.

For most patients, da Vinci offers numerous potential benefits over traditional open surgeries including:

• Shorter hospital stay
• Less pain
• Less risk of infection
• Less blood loss and transfusions
• Less scarring
• Faster recovery
• Quicker return to normal activities
