Robotic-Assisted Surgery

Benefits of Robotic Surgery

 

Robot-assisted surgery gives your surgeon greater precision and control over the surgical instruments than is possible with human movement alone. And compared to open surgery, it can offer additional patient benefits, including:

  • Less pain and blood loss
  • Less scarring, due to tiny surgical incisions
  • Shorter recovery time and hospital stay
  • Quicker return to your daily activities
  • Lower rate of surgical complications

Mako™ Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgical System

 

The surgeon works from the console within the operating room that uses 3D CT-based planning software so your surgeon can know more about your anatomy to create a personalized joint replacement surgical plan. In the operating room, your surgeon follows your personalized surgical plan while preparing the bone for the implant.

Conditions​​ treated

 

The most frequent surgery with this technology, the Mako™ robot offers the benefits of more precision and shorter recovery time:

  • Total Knee Replacement
  • Partial Knee Replacement
  • Total Hip Replacement

ROSA® Knee System: Robotic Knee Replacement


Having chronic knee pain shouldn’t mean giving up the things you love. Thankfully, Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – Trophy Club has a new way to keep you moving: ROSA® Knee robotic technology. Our specially trained surgeons use ROSA® Knee to personalize the approach to total knee replacement — providing a solution that works for you and your unique anatomy.

Conditions​​ treated

 

Getting a precise knee implant fit is vital to your comfort and overall experience following knee replacement surgery. ROSA® Knee uses data collected before and during surgery to inform your surgeon of many details related to your unique anatomy that may affect your implant fit. Using this data to make more informed decisions, your surgeon can plan for and carry out personalized surgery based on your individual needs.

  • Total Knee Replacement

Da Vinci

 

The da Vinci Surgical System has several arms, which include a camera arm and surgical arms, that are controlled by a surgeon during procedures. The surgeon works from a console within the operating room that also features a high-definition, 3D display. The much smaller robotic “hands” help surgeons perform procedures through tiny incisions that human hands cannot.

Conditions​​ treated

 

Robot-assisted surgery is available as an alternative to traditional open and laparoscopic surgeries and is used to treat many conditions, including:

  • Colon and Rectal
    • Colon cancer
    • Rectal cancer
    • Diverticulitis of the intestine
    • Rectal prolapse
  • General Surgery
    • Adrenal gland tumors (benign)
    • Gallbladder disease
    • Gallstones
    • Hernia repair (hiatal and inguinal hernias)
    • Weight Loss Surgery
  • Bariatrics
    • Adjustable Gastric Band
    • Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy
    • Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass

StealthStation™ Surgical Navigation and O-arm™ Surgical Imaging System

 

Taking care of you and your family is our top priority. Every day our professionals focus on enhancing patient care and satisfaction.

That’s why our operating rooms include advanced navigation and imaging equipment, including the StealthStation™ and O-arm™ Systems. The O-arm™ System creates detailed 2- and 3-dimensional images, which provide our physicians with more information during surgery.

Technology for Precision

 

Advanced, Proven Technology

Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – Trophy Club is one of over 850 facilities worldwide that offer O-arm™ Surgical Imaging. This surgical scanning system combines the best features of C-arm technology with intra-operative 3-D imaging and navigation.

Data for Enhanced Surgical Decisions

Intra-operative imaging, coupled with surgical navigation, enables your surgeon to provide you with a precise surgery. The key to this technology is the delivery of critical information during each step of your surgical procedure — potentially reducing the need for repeat surgery.

Providing You with the Best Possible Care

The StealthStation™ and O-arm™ solution improves visualization and the ability to perform minimally invasive procedures. For patients, this may mean smaller incisions, faster recovery times, and enhanced surgical outcomes.

Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – Trophy Club is proud to announce we have earned The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval® for our Hip and Knee Replacement Programs. This certification was achieved by demonstrating compliance with The Joint Commission’s national standards for health care quality and safety in disease-specific care.
