Fox Chase gynecologic surgeons operate using robotic, laparoscopic and traditional abdominal incision approaches. Minimally-invasive robotic surgery is commonly offered for cancers requiring the removal of the uterus (partial hysterectomy), uterus and cervix (total hysterectomy), fallopian tubes and/or ovaries. The robot also can be used to help determine the stage of the cancer.
