Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) Database for the Purpose of Research

The Minimally Invasive Surgery Team (MIST) are establishing a separate research database to find out more about patient’s undergoing minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopic , open and robot assisted) procedures at UCSD. The hope is that collection of this information will give physicians a better knowledge and understanding of the benefits of minimally invasive surgery and possibly assist physicians to better manage future patients.
