da Vinci^® Prostatectomy (dVP) Video

For many patients approaching surgery, it is often difficult to visualize what is entailed in a specific surgical procedure. To give prospective da Vinci^® prostatectomy (dVP) patients a better understanding of the advances made by robotically-assisted minimally invasive surgery, we are providing the following video presentation.

This video offers a three-dimensional simulation of the male reproductive anatomy, the enabling technology the da Vinci^® Surgical System and the procedure itself.

While clinical studies support the effectiveness of the da Vinci ^® System when used in minimally invasive surgery, individual results may vary. Surgery with the da Vinci ^® Surgical System may not be appropriate for every individual. Always ask your doctor about all treatment options, as well as their risks and benefits.
