Phoenix Urology in partnership with Mosaic Hospital is proud to be the first in the entire Kansas City area to offer robotic minimally invasive surgery for prostate cancer, kidney cancer and pelvic organ prolapse with the Intuitive Surgical Da Vinci 5 (DV5) – the most advanced robotic platform in the world for urologic surgery.
How the Da Vinci 5 Works
Surgeon Control The surgeon sits at a console, viewing a magnified 3D image of the surgical field.
Robotic Arms Four robotic arms, controlled by the surgeon, hold tiny surgical instruments and a high-definition camera.
Enhanced Precision The robot’s tremor filtering technology eliminates any hand tremors from the surgeon, allowing for more precise movements.
Improved Dexterity The robotic arms offer a wider range of motion than the human hand, enabling access to hard-to-reach areas.
Benefits of Da Vinci Surgery
Reduced Incision Sizes Minimally invasive procedures result in smaller incisions, leading to faster healing and less pain.
Improved Accuracy Enhanced dexterity and tremor filtering improve surgical precision, minimizing risks and complications.
Faster Recovery Smaller incisions and reduced tissue trauma contribute to shorter recovery times and hospital stays.
