Colectomy using the da Vinci® robotic system is an advanced, minimally invasive approach to removing part or all of the colon. This approach offers potential benefits over traditional open surgery, including smaller incisions, less blood loss, quicker recovery, and reduced risk of complications.

At Arizona Endocrine Surgery, we offer state-of-the-art techniques for patients with conditions such as colon cancer, diverticulitis, polyps not removable by colonoscopy, or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

The da Vinci system provides enhanced precision, 3D visualization, and greater control through small incisions designed to reduce postoperative pain, shorten recovery time, and improve cosmetic outcomes.

Dr. Harding carefully evaluates each patient to determine the most effective and least invasive treatment option. Studies have shown that da Vinci colectomy can lead to lower blood loss, faster return of bowel function, shorter hospital stays, and potentially better cosmetic outcomes compared to open surgery.
