Purpose of this Study
The OTTAVA Robotic System is a special machine that helps doctors do surgery through very small openings in the skin. The doctor controls the robot, and the robot moves the tools inside the body based on the doctors hand movements. A tiny camera helps the doctor see inside the body during the procedure. If you join this study, your surgery will be done with the OTTAVA Robotic System, and you will have three study visits.
