The surgeon controls every movement
Robotic surgery is an evolution of laparoscopy. From a console in the operating room, the surgeon controls articulated instruments with three-dimensional, magnified vision. The robot does not operate on its own — every movement comes from the surgeon. It adds precision for suturing and dissection in difficult anatomy.
When it helps
It is particularly useful in deep endometriosis with bowel or bladder involvement, large or multiple fibroid myomectomies, and complex pelvic anatomy. The current Da Vinci Xi platform is available at Hospital Ángeles Valle Oriente.
For international patients
Start with an online $50 USD video consultation to review your studies and discuss whether a robotic or laparoscopic approach best fits your case, and to plan your visit.
Frequently asked questions
Is robotic surgery better than laparoscopy?
Both are minimally invasive. The robot can add precision in complex cases; the best approach depends on your case.
Does the robot operate by itself?
No. Every movement is controlled by the surgeon from a console.
Can we start remotely?
Yes, with a $50 USD video consultation.
