Da Vinci Robotic Surgery
Robotic surgery is the most recent advancement in laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer. The da Vinci robot allows our surgeons to operate at a 3-D console away from the surgical field.
Transanal Minimally Invasive Surgery (TAMIS)
TransAnal Minimally Invasive Surgery (TAMIS) is a new technique used to remove tumors from the rectum. TAMIS removes tumors faster than traditional surgeries and with less pain during recovery and a quicker return to normal activity.
Laparoscopic Surgery
Laparoscopic surgery, also called laparoscopy, is done through several smaller incisions in the abdomen. A laparoscope (a tool with a very small video camera and a light) is inserted through one incision.
Transanal Hemorrhoidal Dearterialization (THD)
THD is a minimally invasive surgery to treat hemorrhoids. During the surgery, the surgeon ties off the arterial blood flow of the hemorrhoid, causing it shrink.
Rubber band Ligation Hemorrhoid Therapy
Rubber band Ligation Hemorrhoid Therapy is an office procedure where the surgeon attaches tiny O-rings to the base of internal hemorrhoids to cut off circulation.
