Cancers of the reproductive system affect 1 in 20 women. Because cancer has such a powerful impact on the lives of so many women, their partners, families and friends, Cedars Sinai Marina del Rey Hospital continually investigates advances in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Our skilled gynecological surgeons specialize in minimally invasive surgeries for cancers of the cervix, ovary, uterus, vagina, vulva, and fallopian tubes, including endometrial cancer, the most common gynecologic cancer in the U.S.
It is extremely important to detect cancer early, which is why we encourage every woman to see a gynecologist at least once per year. If you have any of these symptoms regularly, please get checked out by a doctor right away:
Modern Treatments. Time-Tested Results
We help patients overcome painful conditions with state-of-the-art surgery. Rediscover yourself
Now Cedars Sinai Marina del Rey Hospital offers another breakthrough minimally invasive surgical approach that’s changing the experience of surgery for women. Robotic surgery provides a safer alternative to the large abdominal incisions and scarring involved with traditional women’s surgery. Another big difference – our robot-assisted surgery allows a faster recovery for a quicker return back to your normal activities. In gynecology, the da Vinci Si Surgical System has made huge strides, particularly for women undergoing hysterectomy procedures.
Our da Vinci® Si Surgical System is the most advanced robotic surgery platform available. Its benefits include less pain, reduced blood loss, smaller scars and shorter recovery times. It can also improve clinical outcomes, with less risk than invasive open surgeries and more precision than conventional laparoscopic techniques.
Experienced, Compassionate Care
Our expert surgeons are leading the way in individualized, quality care for women
In the hands of our experienced surgeons, the da Vinci Si Surgical System gets you back to your life faster. Unlike rigid “straight stick” laparoscopy, robotic movements are incredibly precise, giving our talented surgeons greater flexibility to perform complex and delicate procedures through very small incisions. Robot hands translate the surgeon’s intuitive movements, twisting and maneuvering with super accurate dexterity to reach tumors, scar tissue and fibroids. More precision means less body trauma, significantly less pain and a shorter hospital stay.
The sophisticated camera gives our expertly trained doctors a highly magnified 3-D perspective of each patient’s unique anatomy. Especially for hysterectomy patients or women with large fibroids or excessive scar tissue from multiple C-sections, the unprecedented control of this new surgical approach can increase the likelihood of a fast recovery.
