                      Robotic Surgery

                      Robotic Surgery


                      The surgeons at South Baldwin Regional Medical Center perform robotic surgery - a minimally invasive approach to surgery that allows surgeons to perform complex surgical procedures through small incisions. For patients, robotic surgery may offer:

                      • Less pain and scarring
                      • Lower risk of infection
                      • Shorter hospital stays
                      • Quicker recovery

                      Robotic surgery is similar to laparoscopic techniques, in which small incisions are made near the surgical treatment area. From a console in the operating room, the surgeon remotely manipulates surgical instruments, which are attached to robotic arms, to perform surgery through the incisions. A powerful camera provides magnified, 3-D images to provide clear details of the surgical area. Robotic technology gives surgeons enhanced dexterity, precision and range of motion.

                      Our surgeons are specially trained and have experience with a variety of robotic-assisted procedures, from hysterectomy to prostate cancer surgery. South Baldwin Regional Medical Center's surgeons use robotic technology for:

                      Gynecology Procedures

                      • Robotic hysterectomy (removal of the uterus)
                      • Robotic single-site hysterectomy
                      • Robotic supracervical hysterectomy (leaving the cervix while removing uterus)
                      • Robotic sacrocolpopexy (suspension for pelvic organ prolapse)
                      • Robotic myomectomy (removal of uterine fibroids)

                      General Surgery Procedures

                      • Robotic nissen fundoplication (treatment for gastroesophageal reflux)
                      • Robotic single-site cholecystectomy (removal of gallbladder through navel)
                      • ENT (ear, nose and throat) procedures
                      • Robotic transoral hemiglossectomy (treatment for cancer of tongue)

                      Orthopedic Procedures
