Laparoscopic surgery, also called minimally invasive surgery (MIS), keyhole surgery is a modern surgical technique in which operations in the abdomen are performed through small incisions (usually 0.5-1.5 cm) as compared to larger incisions needed in traditional surgical procedures.

Difference between standard surgery and da vinci robotic surgery?
Da Vinci is a form of Laparoscopic Surgery where the Surgeon sits at a remote consul to perform the operation. Because the skin incisions are only large enough for the instruments to pass through the small tube that penetrates the skin it is less traumatic than regular Surgery with a shorter recovery time and minimal scaring. The patient is draped in the standard manner and attended by the Anesthesiologist with the Surgical Technologist remaining at the patient's side throughout the operation to exchange tips on the various laparoscopic instruments used during the case. The Surgeon is able to control the inserted instruments from the remote consul within the OR. As with all laparoscopic procedures the Surgeon and sterile team must be ready to open the patient and convert to a conventional open procedure if the required access is not sufficient via this mode of Surgery or if complications occur.
What is cpt code for da vinci robot hysterectomy?
You should use the Laparoscopic codes for the Davinci. Usually 58570-58573 for a Total Hysterectomy. There is S2900 which can be used for some payers but basic instruction from payers is to report the Laparoscopic codes - there is no specific code for Davinci.
What is some information about hysterectomy with robotics via the da Vinci method?
Hysterectomy using the da Vinci method and equipment is fast becoming one of the more frequent procedures for removal of the uterus. If this procedure is proposed, ask the surgeon or gynecologist to explain it to you in detail and ask how much experience they have using this method. This procedure is robotic-assisted and done through a laparoscopic approach which is very minimally invasive and recovery times are much shorter, pain is less severe after the surgery, and often only a few Bandaids are needed on the small incisions after the procedure. Not all patients who need a hysterectomy can be surgically treated this way, but if it is an option given to you, if it were me and if the surgeon is experienced, it would be the procedure I would request. More on da Vinci surgical robotics from the da Vinci website, see link below: The da Vinci Surgical System consists of a surgeon's console, a patient cart with four interactive robotic arms, a high-performance vision system and patented "EndoWrist" instruments. The da Vinci Surgical System provides physicians with such enhanced detail and precision that the System can simulate an open surgical environment while allowing operation through tiny incisions. Interesting information: The product is called "da Vinci" in part because Leonardo da Vinci invented the first robot. He also used unparalleled anatomical accuracy and three-dimensional details to bring his masterpieces to life.

Was Da Vinci a Tudor?
No. The Tudor period occurred in England between 1485 to 1603. Da Vinci was not English. And he was born in 1452. Therefore he was not a Tudor. Also, calling Leonardo by the name "Da Vinci" is improper use of is name. Leonardo was born in an Italian town called Vinci and did not have a surname. Therefore he became known as Leonardo Da Vinci, which is translated as Leonardo of Vinci. So, calling him "Da Vinci" you are actually saying "of Vinci" in the Italian language.
