1 Facing Gynecologic Surgery?

2 Domenico Vitobello, MD Domenico Vitobello is the medical director of the Gynecologic Unit at the Humanitas Clinical and Research Center since He has developed a comprehensive know-how for the surgical management of all gynecologic pathology, including benign, malignant and urogynecological conditions, performing several thousands of operations as first surgeon. He is skilled in minimally invasive procedures through conventional laparoscopy and robotic-assisted approach. He is counselor of the Italian school of minimally invasive surgery and he is Tutor for the Intuitive Company for training and use of the da Vinci surgical system domenico.vitobello@tin.it

3 General Gynecologic Surgery Doctor Vitobello offer treatment options for all benign gynecologic conditions, mainly through minimally invasive approach, in case of: Fibroids Heavy periods and abnormal uterine bleeding Ovarian cysts Endometriosis and Chronic pelvic pain Fertility issues

4 Urogynecology Women who experience incontinence and other bladder and pelvic disorders are often unaware of the highly effective treatment options available to them. offering rapid diagnosis and highly effective minimally invasive treatment of women with lower urinary tract and pelvic floor disorders such as Female urinary incontinence Pelvic Organ Prolapse

5 Gynecologic Oncology Management of all forms of early and advanced stage gynecologic cancers through a great experience in Italian cancer center: CERVICAL CANCER ENDOMETRIAL CANCER OVARIAN CANCER In selected early stage conditions of young women wishing to preserve her childbearing potential, if possible also fertility-sparing options.

6 Minimally Invasive Surgery Advances in technology and surgical techniques have made minimally invasive gynecologic surgery a viable option for many women today. Procedures that once required large incisions and open surgery, such as comprehensive surgical staging for gynecologic cancers, can now be performed through a few tiny incisions. Abdominal incisions

7 Minimally Invasive Surgery We offer minimally invasive surgery as preferred option for most gynecologic benign and oncologic conditions through conventional laparoscopic and robotic approach. For most patients, minimally invasive surgery allows numerous potential benefits over traditional approaches, such as: Significantly less pain Less blood loss Fewer complications Less scarring and better cosmesis A shorter hospital stay A faster return to normal daily activities Better outcomes and satisfactions

8 Robotic Surgery The da Vinci Surgical System represents the newest technological development in the field of minimally invasive surgery. Robotic surgery is the most effective and least invasive treatment option currently available and it allows surgeons to operate with greater precision and control, minimizing the pain and risk associated with large incisions while increasing the likelihood of a fast recovery and excellent clinical outcomes, particularly when performing the more challenging procedures, such as: Radical hysterectomy Lymphadenectomy Bowel resection for deep endometriosis Sacrocolpopexy Microsurgical tubal reanastomosis Gynecologic procedures in obese patients
