da Vinci® Esophagomyotomy (Heller) Myotomy: A Less Invasive Procedure

If your doctor recommends surgery for Esophagomyotomy (Heller) Myotomy, you may be a candidate for a new, less invasive surgical procedure called da Vinci Esophagomyotomy (Heller) Myotomy. This procedure uses a state-of-the-art surgical system designed to help your surgeon see more clearly with 3D-high definition vision and to perform a more precise operation.

For most patients, da Vinci Esophagomyotomy (Heller) Myotomy offers several potential benefits over traditional open surgery, including:

  • Shorter hospital stay
  • Less pain and scarring
  • Less risk of infection
  • Less blood loss and fewer transfusions
  • Faster recovery
  • Quicker return to normal activities

As with any surgery, these benefits cannot be guaranteed since surgery is unique to each patient and procedure.
