Robotic Surgery at UPMC

Robotic surgery represents the latest frontier in minimally invasive surgery, offering an unprecedented combination of precision, safety and innovation. Using state-of-the-art technological systems, our surgeons are able to perform surgery with pinpoint precision, significantly reducing invasiveness and aggressiveness compared to traditional surgery.

Benefits for Patients

Opting for robotic surgery at UPMC means benefiting from numerous advantages:

• Smaller incisions: smaller incisions result in less bleeding and tissue trauma.
• Minimal scars: scars are less visible and smaller in size.
• Reduced risk of complications: the precision of robotic instruments decreases the likelihood of operative complications.
• Less postoperative pain: due to the reduced invasiveness, patients experience less pain after surgery.
• Shorter hospital stay time: patients can return home and resume daily activities more quickly.
• Rapid resumption of quality of life: faster recovery allows patients to return to a normal life in a shorter time.
