Pasco, Pinellas, Hillsborough Counties, Florida (July 31, 2018) – Medical Center of Trinity is pleased to announce the recent acquisition of the latest enhanced technology in robotic-assisted surgery. Robotic-assisted surgery enables your doctor to operate with enhanced vision, precision, dexterity and control.
The high-definition 3D vision system allows surgeons to see key anatomy with immense depth and clarity. The specially trained surgeons who perform these procedures at Medical Center of Trinity control the robotic-assisted surgical system, which translates his or her hand movements into small, more precise movements of tiny instruments inside the body. Robotic-assisted surgery allows the doctor to perform complex procedures through just a few tiny openings.
For patients this may mean less trauma and pain, minimal scarring, decreased blood loss, and faster recovery. As a result, patients may be able to get back to life faster without the usual recovery following major surgery. The new technology is guided hands-on at all times by a board certified physician and can be used across a spectrum of minimally invasive surgical procedures and has been optimized for surgeries.
“We are truly thrilled to add this latest technology to the advanced surgical options we offer and look forward to continue bringing outstanding care and clinical advances to the communities we serve,” said Leigh Massengill, RN, Chief Executive Officer of Medical Center of Trinity.
The procedures are now performed in the following areas:
- General Surgery (gall bladder, appendectomy, hernia)
- Colorectal
- Gynecology
- Thoracic
- Urology
- Urogynecology
