University of Iowa Hospitals & Clinics offers a minimally invasive approach enhanced with robotic surgical technology to gynecologic and obstetric surgeries.

This new technology enhances a surgeon's ability to perform the fine suturing required for these procedures. The more accurate and delicate the suturing, the lesser the chance of a scar tissue forming at the reattachment site.

Benefits of minimally invasive surgery

  • Enhanced dexterity, precision and control for the surgeon 
  • Less blood loss
  • Quicker recovery
  • Reduced pain
  • Shorter hospital stay
  • Small incisions, reducing surgical trauma

Types of obstetric and gynecologic surgeries

  • Cervical/endometrial cancer
  • Endo-tubal reanastamosis
  • Exploratory surgery of pelvic masses 
  • Fallopian tube reanastamosis (tubal ligation reversal)
  • Myomectomies (surgical removal of uterine fibroids)
  • Oncologic hysterectomies
  • Repair of uterine and vaginal wall prolapses
  • Reproductive endocrinology and infertility
