Treatment & Procedures

We Focus on Your Best Possible Outcome

At Holy Cross Hospital in Silver Spring and Holy Cross Hospital in Germantown, patients with gynecologic conditions are treated with innovative, minimally invasive surgery techniques. We are a nationally recognized center for the development and use of innovative gynecologic surgical methods including robotic gynecologic surgery.

Today, nearly every gynecologic surgery patient at Holy Cross Health is a candidate for minimally invasive and robotic gynecologic surgery.

We are a leading training ground for gynecologic surgeons. Physicians refer their most complex cases to our team of gynecologic experts.

Pioneering Minimally Invasive Techniques

Our gynecologic surgeons have pioneered and refined many of the minimally invasive procedures that we use to treat even the most complicated cases:

• During robotic surgery, small incisions are used to insert cameras and instruments, allowing the surgeon to guide them through robotic arms using the da Vinci® system.
• In Laparoscopic surgery, (link to new page GYN Surgery/Treatment & Procedures/Laparoscopic surgery) surgeons make as few as two small incisions through which they insert surgical instruments and a tiny video camera into the body which they use to monitor the surgical procedure.
• Hysteroscopic surgery is used to treat uterine fibroids, polyps and non-cancerous growths that are located just underneath the lining of the uterus.
