Women's Robotic Reproductive and Gynecological Surgery

Hackensack University Medical Center’s reproductive and gynecological surgeons were among the first in New Jersey to use robotic technology to revolutionize surgical care for a range of reproductive and gynecological conditions, including infertility, endometriosis, fibroids and cancer of the uterus, cervix and ovaries.

The use of robotic technology for such delicate and complex procedures has significant benefits for our patients, including fewer complications, less blood loss, less scarring and a quicker return to normal daily activities.

The Power of Robotic Technology

At Hackensack University Medical Center, our surgeons can use robotic technology to treat both common and complex reproductive and gynecological conditions with less pain, blood loss and scarring.

Robotic Surgery & Benefits

Meet our Women's Robotic Reproductive and Gynecological Surgery Specialists

Why is robotic surgery superior to other minimally invasive techniques?

Our robotic surgical system has four arms that allow for maximum accuracy, mobility and visibility. The “wristed” instruments on the system have more dexterity than the human hand and provide the accuracy, precision and flexibility required to perform delicate reproductive and gynecological surgeries in small spaces.

Our robotic system also incorporates the latest 3D, high-definition imaging technology, providing our surgeons increased visibility using the smallest possible incisions.

Lowering Risk and Increasing Safety for our Patients

Robotic technology enables our surgeons to treat common and complex reproductive and gynecological conditions with less pain, blood loss and scarring, which leads to faster recovery times, increased safety and lower risks of complications for our patients.

Conditions We Treat

The surgeons at Hackensack University Medical Center use the latest da Vinci Xi® Surgical System to treat a variety of reproductive, gynecological and urogynecological conditions.

A Multidisciplinary Approach

Our multidisciplinary robotics team includes experienced cancer, urogynecology and reproductive robotic surgery specialists. In addition, robotic surgeons at Hackensack University Medical Center, across all specialties, regularly share their knowledge and experience to continuously improve patient outcomes.

Specialized Gynecologic Cancer Care

At Hackensack University Medical Center, our gynecologic oncologists use robotic technology to accurately determine cancer staging. By using robotic technology, our team is able to help patients receive the right gynecologic cancer treatment in a more timely manner, while also reducing the risk of infection after staging procedures.

Clinical trials are available to gynecologic cancer patients to detect sentinel lymph node (SLN) involvement in cervical and uterine cancer cases. One trial, referred to as the “firefly trial”, uses fluorescent dye to make the SLN glow under near-infrared imaging with the help of da Vinci technology.

By identifying SLN involvement through this clinical trial, our surgeons can avoid unnecessary lymph node removal and reduce the risk of patient s developing lymphedema, a side effect of lymph node removal that can cause swelling in the legs.
