Greenville Health System is at the forefront of robotic surgery. Robotic surgery is a ground breaking alternative to conventional open surgery and traditional laparoscopy.
da Vinci Surgery
Today,
complex conditions ranging from prostate cancer to uterine prolapse,
fibroids and even heart disease can be treated minimally invasively with
da Vinci Surgery. This approach uses a robotic
surgical system that provides the Greenville Health System Robotics Program surgeons better vision, more precision
and control. It requires only a few small incisions, so you can get back
to your life faster -- without the usual recovery
following major surgery.

Advanced Robotic Solution for Arrhythmias
Arrhythmia Consultants offers patients the latest in robotic treatment of arrhythmia using the Sensei® Robotic Catheter System. A very specialized tool used for catheter based mapping within the chambers of a patient’s heart, the Sensei System allows for more precise and stable catheter manipulation during complex cardiac procedures. Arrhythmia Consultants and Greenville Hospital System were the first facility in South Carolina to offer this technology and have more experience than any other practice in the state.
This unique, state of the art technology is powered by a highly accurate, robotically controlled arm that allows for catheter navigation, stability and positioning within the chamber of the heart.

Oncology & Thoracic daVinci Trained Physicians
A da Vinci Lobectomy (removal
of the section of the lung containing the tumor) allows for improved
access inside the chest cavity and lungs. Because da Vinci Surgery is performed through a few tiny incisions,
spreading your ribs to access the lung is avoided. da Vinci is
minimally invasive, unlike thoracotomy. Thoracotomy is the traditional
way to access the chest cavity; it requires a long incision between the
ribs, and often a long and painful recovery.
A da Vinci Lobectomyoffers lung cancer patients the benefits of surgery, but with a minimally invasive approach.
