Hello,
I have just been informed that I am getting the robotic assisted laparoscopic Mals surgery... Does anyone have any experience with this? And could supply me with some information?

Whoa! Who is doing that? Do you have an artery compression or is it the ganglion nerves? I have never heard of anybody having robotic surgery for that and I am on the MALS PALS Facebook page that is extremely informative. They’re only a few doctors in the entire country that are capable of doing the surgery without having to have another surgery performed by a different doctor to fix but the first one screwed up. I would do a heck of a lot of homework before I loud somebody to do that surgery especially robotic and laparoscopic. If you’re not already on the mals pal’s Facebook page you need to get on it. Now only read what everybody has to say but they have a lot of documentation and list of doctors who are preferred surgeons for this particular surgery. We are finding out from a lot of people that laparoscopic ends up going to an open surgery later down the road. Which then causes more problems.
