da Vinci Xi Surgical and Ion Systems
Live Remarkable with less invasive procedures
Holy Cross Health in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, offers the da Vinci Xi and Ion - both Intuitive surgical systems - as effective, minimally invasive alternatives to open surgery, laparoscopy and lung biopsies.
Robotic-assisted surgery allows surgeons to perform complex procedures using tiny incisions only 8 mm long. The surgeon sits at a console operating four robotic arms, one of which contains a camera, and views the procedure through binocular-like lenses that provide a highly magnified, 3-D view. As the surgeon moves the controls, the system translates the finger movements into precise manipulation of miniaturized instruments and eliminates any natural hand tremors.
Benefits of the da Vinci may include:
- Significantly less pain
- Less blood loss
- Fewer complications
- Less scarring
- A shorter hospital stay
- A faster return to normal daily activities
