Myomectomy with Robot Da Vinci in TALOS INTUITIVE CARE - Robotic GYN surgery

Talos Intuitive Care is a single-specialty medical provider in Athens, Greece, founded in 2005. The clinic focuses on robotic-assisted gynecologic surgery for international patients. All procedures take place at affiliated private hospitals, including Metropolitan General Hospital and HYGEIA Hospital.

Accreditations and Achievements

The clinic holds JCI accreditation, an international gold standard for healthcare quality. Lead surgeon Dr. Nikolaos Plevris is the first SRC-accredited Master Surgeon in Robotic Surgery in Greece. He is certified by the General Medical Council in the UK and the Hellenic Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Dr. Plevris currently leads a research project on hereditary ovarian cancer. He completed fellowship training in gynecological oncology and minimally invasive surgery within the NHS in the United Kingdom. He also holds an ATSM certificate in Gynecological Oncology from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists.

Robotic Gynecologic Specialties

The clinic treats complex gynecological conditions with minimally invasive surgery. Robotic platforms allow precise tissue handling through smaller incisions. This reduces scarring and shortens hospital stays for overseas patients.

Specialists treat various conditions and perform several key procedures:

• Robotic-assisted hysterectomy for uterus removal
• Robotic-assisted myomectomy to remove uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus
• Robotic endometriosis excision to diagnose and remove deep lesions
• Ovarian cystectomy for cyst removal with a focus on preserving ovarian tissue

Most patients need only an overnight hospital stay after these procedures. The clinic's enhanced recovery program helps patients return to normal activities faster.

For endometriosis, surgeons use robotic-assisted laparoscopic excision to remove lesions while protecting surrounding structures. Patients with uterine fibroids can choose robotic myomectomy instead of open surgery, even for larger growths. Medications are also available to manage pain and regulate periods.

Advanced Surgical Technology

Talos Intuitive Care uses the da Vinci Xi system for surgeries. This robotic platform includes a surgeon console, a patient-side cart, and a high-resolution 3D vision system. The console translates the surgeon's hand movements into precise motions of articulated EndoWrist instruments inside the body.

The vision system uses a 3D endoscope for magnified, high-definition images of the surgical site. Robotic arms provide steadier control than human hands during delicate maneuvers. This precision matters most when removing complex fibroids or excising endometriosis from pelvic walls.

Services for International Patients

The clinic is built around English-speaking travelers. Surgeons trained in the UK speak fluent English. Patients can start with a virtual consultation to review medical documents and imaging.

International support services include:

• Assistance with flight and hotel bookings
• Coordination for family member accommodations
• Arrangements for tourist visits in Athens during recovery
• English-language medical coordination and post-operative monitoring

Surgeries take place at Metropolitan General Hospital (226 beds) or HYGEIA Hospital (18 operating theaters, 440 beds). Both are private facilities that meet international standards for patient care and comfort.
