Robotic Surgery for Urologic Procedures

The da Vinci Xi is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for a wide range of urological procedures that previously required traditional "open" surgery with larger incisions. This important new technique allows surgeons to perform many major procedures through incisions the size of a dime.

The da Vinci Xi surgical system is ideal for urological procedures involving the prostate, kidney and bladder. The greater visualization and 360-degree manipulation of surgical instruments allow surgeons to work more effectively in tightly confined areas surrounded by nerves that control urination and sexual function. Distinct advantages over traditional "open" surgery:

  • Better preservation of healthy tissue
  • Less trauma to surrounding tissue and organs
  • Better surgical result
  • Improved quality of life

Patients undergoing major urological procedures using the da Vinci Xi surgical system experience the benefits of minimally invasive surgery:

  • Minimal blood loss, fewer complications
  • Less pain and scarring
  • Shorter hospital stay and recovery time
  • Faster return to normal daily activities
