Robotic Transvaginal Hysterectomy

There are a variety of reasons why a woman would need a hysterectomy, which is a surgery to remove their uterus. “Pre-cancer of the cervix, which is cervical dysplasia. Pre-cancer of the uterus, then we’ve got malignancies like Ovarian cancer and Fallopian Tube cancer.” Independent Gynecologic Oncologist Dr. Fadi Abu Shahin said it’s the most common surgery done in women. Thanks to Lee Health’s new robot, the procedure is now less invasive for patients. “Two instruments come out from it, and they enter the pelvis vaginally and I control the robot through those joysticks.” In the past, even with other robots, doctors would need to make 3 small incisions. With Lee Health’s state of the art robot, they only need to make one. “One small incision on the abdominal wall and after it heals, there’s no visible scars,” said Dr. Abu Shahin. It also means a lower risk of injury for the patient. “By having less incisions, you may have shorter recovery and less pain after surgery and a shorter hospitalization and faster discharge home,” said Dr. Abu Shahin. Patients typically are able to go home the very same day. On average, the full recovery takes about a month. “That’s not 4 weeks in bed, but the average time it takes to get back to where the patient was before the surgery and they recover at home.” View More Health Matters video segments at    / leehealth   Lee Health in Fort Myers, FL is the largest network of health care facilities in Southwest Florida and is highly respected for its expertise, innovation and quality of care.
