As is appropriate with any surgical procedure, consideration must be given to patient size and workspace volume when using the system and instruments. As in any patient of smaller size, the possibility of misalignment of the remote center with the body exists. In order to minimize forces on the body wall, care must be taken to ensure the remote center is properly aligned with the body wall.

Serious complications may occur in any surgery, including da Vinci^® Surgery, up to and including death. Examples of serious or life-threatening complications, which may require prolonged and/or unexpected hospitalization and/or reoperation, include but are not limited to, one or more of the following: injury to tissues/organs, bleeding, infection and internal scarring that can cause long-lasting dysfunction/pain. Individual surgical results may vary.

Risks specific to minimally invasive surgery, including da Vinci^® Surgery, include but are not limited to, one or more of the following: temporary pain/nerve injury associated with positioning; a longer operative time, the need to convert to an open approach, or the need for additional or larger incision sites. Converting the procedure could result in a longer operative time, a longer time under anesthesia, and could lead to increased complications. Contraindications applicable to the use of conventional endoscopic instruments also apply to the use of all da Vinci instruments. You should discuss your surgical experience and review these and all risks with your patients, including the potential for human error and equipment failure. Physicians should review all available information. Clinical studies are available through the National Library of Medicine at www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed.
