Advanced Laparoscopic Abdominal Surgery | da Vinci Robotic Surgery

Most abdominal surgeries can now be performed with laparoscopic techniques, such as the da Vinci robotic surgical system. Dr. Cernero uses this method to perform abdominal surgeries such as Cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal surgery), Abdominal Wall Hernia repair, and Colorectal Adrenalectomies.

The da Vinci Surgical System—the latest in surgical and robotic technologies—allows the surgeon to operate through just a few small incisions. It features a magnified 3D high-definition vision system and tiny wristed instruments that bend and rotate far greater than the human wrist, giving the surgeon enhanced vision, precision, dexterity, and control.

Gallbladder Removal

For patients with gallbladder disorders such as gallstones, Single Incision Laparoscopic surgery may be used to remove the gallbladder. During this procedure, a tiny incision is made in the navel and the gallbladder is removed. The incision is closed with three small stitches and the wound is covered with a small bandage. The Single Incision Laparoscopic process provides patients with the best cosmetic results and less scaring, and may improve the patient’s overall satisfaction.

Endocrine (Thyroid, Parathyroid, and Adrenal)

This surgery focuses on the management of problems (principally benign and malignant tumors) of the thyroid, parathyroid and adrenal glands, as well as endocrine tumors of the gastrointestinal tract and the pancreas.
