At right, Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center urology surgeon Maj. Tara Ortiz inspects a suture sample. Looking on is operating room registered nurse, Allison Hennis. Because of the robot’s range of motion, suturing is easier than hand stitching during delicate procedures. First approved for use in 2000 as a replacement for general, laparoscopic procedures, robotic systems like da Vinci have made the technical aspects of minimally invasive surgery easier because of the systems’ extended range of motion and flexibility.
