Minimally invasive surgery
Minimally invasive surgeries use smaller and fewer incisions than traditional or "open" surgeries do. This offers many advantages, including:
- Less harm to surrounding tissue
- Less postoperative pain
- Quicker recovery
- Reduced scarring
- Shorter hospital stays
Many of the minimally invasive surgeries we offer can be performed as outpatient (same-day) procedures and include:
Endoscopic and arthroscopic procedures
These types of procedures involve small incisions and use fiber-optic video cameras as well as catheters (thin, flexible tubes) during the procedure. This allows surgeons and their teams to easily access and readily see a detailed, live video of the surgical site.
Arthroscopic procedures are specifically performed on joints, whereas endoscopic procedures are performed in other areas of the body, as needed.
Laser surgery
This is an innovative minimally invasive technique we are proud to offer. It involves the use of sound waves guided by X-ray or ultrasound to perform procedures.
Laparoscopic surgery
Laparoscopic procedures involve one or more small incisions through which a laparoscope is inserted. This tool has special surgical instruments on it as well as a camera to allow surgeons to easily see the surgical site.
Robotic surgery
Many of the minimally invasive surgeries we perform are robot-assisted procedures. These use incredible, advanced technology that translates a surgeon's hand movements into more precise motions with robotic tools. The surgeon is nearby and always in full control of the robotic systems, which provides them with tiny surgical tools and highly detailed views of the surgical site. This amplifies the benefits of minimally invasive surgery and allows you to recover even faster.
