Gynecology
RealHand HD instruments are taking laparoscopic GYN surgery to a whole new level by providing:
- Enhanced dexterity & control
- A technological means to tackle open cases minimally invasively
- Versatility with port placement
Challenge conventional thinking on port placement
- Greater flexibility with port placement
- Overcome challenges posed by previous surgery, exposure or body habitus
- Reduce the number of ports
RealHand is proving to be an effective tool for minimally invasive GYN procedures. RealHand has been utilized in a breadth of procedures such as:
| Lap Colectomy | Lap Esophagectomy |
| Total Lap Hysterectomy | Lap Lymphadenectomy |
| Lap Supracervical Hysterectomy | Lap Pelvic Mass |
| Lap Radical Hysterectomy | Lap Myomectomy |
| Lap Adhesiolysis | Lap Colposuspension |
| Lap Oopherectomy | Lap Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy |
| Lap Adhesiolysis | Lap Endometriosis/Ablation |
| Lap Ovarian Cystectomy |
Benefits of RealHand HD Instruments
Lap Hysterectomy
- Facilitate superior manipulation of tissue
- Eliminate instrument “sword fighting”
- Greater accuracy and control around critical structures
- Facilitate suturing
- RealHand offers a technological means to tack the procedure minimally invasively
Radical Hysterectomy
- Greater precision and control when dissecting around critical anatomy
- Ureters, iliac vein, etc
- Feel more confident with a laparoscopic approach; superior tools to address the procedure and its inherent challenges
Lap Lymphadenectomy
- Greater precision with node dissection
- Improved maneuverability to dissect more nodes
- Eliminate instrument “sword fighting”
Single Port Surgery
RealHand HD instruments uniquely enable the surgeon to reduce the number of trocars for surgery. RealHand facilitates single port laparoscopy by allowing triangulation of the instruments even after they are introduced in the same entry point. Single port total laparoscopic hysterectomy and oopherectomy are currently being performed entirely through the umbilicus. For the patient, this approach should yield less post-op pain, a reduced chance of infection or ventral hernia and better cosmetic results.
