A hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus. Hysterectomies are performed for a wide variety of reasons. A hysterectomy is major surgery, but with new technological advances, the discomfort, risk of infection, and recovery time have all been decreased. Robotic-Assisted Hysterectomy also allows your surgeon better visualization of your anatomy, which is especially critical when working around delicate and confined structures like the bladder. This means that surgeons have a distinct advantage when performing a complex, radical hysterectomy involving adhesions from prior pelvic surgery or non-localized cancer, or an abdominal hysterectomy. Robotic-Assisted surgery provides the surgeon with a superior surgical tool for dissection and removal of lymph nodes during cancer operations, as compared to traditional open or minimally invasive approaches. At the Johns Hopkins Hospital, our surgeons also perform a pelvic lymphadenectomy with staging during a hysterectomy for suspected or confirmed gynecological cancers. By performing this at the same time as the hysterectomy, our physicians receive real-time critical information that may affect the surgery and treatment.
