Backus offers da Vinci® Single-Site Surgery, which is a virtually scarless hysterectomy performed through your belly button.
If your doctor has recommended a hysterectomy, one of the options available to you our da Vinci surgical robot. Through a small incision in your belly button, your surgeon can surgically remove your uterus and possibly your ovaries and fallopian tubes.
The robotic technology gives the surgeon enhanced capabilities, including high-definition, three-dimensional vision and a magnified view during the procedure.
Patients have reported shorter hospital stays, less pain and blood loss after the procedure and a faster return to normal activities.
