Robotic surgery

Robotic surgery, also known as robot-assisted surgery, is a minimally invasive approach that uses advanced robotic technology to perform procedures with exceptional precision and control. The system consists of a surgical console, where the surgeon operates the robotic platform, and robotic arms that carry out the procedure under the surgeon’s direct guidance.

During robotic surgery, small incisions are made to allow the robotic arms to access the surgical site and perform the required maneuvers. The surgeon then controls the robotic system from the surgical console, guiding every step of the procedure. The platform provides a high-definition, three-dimensional view of the operating area and enables greater precision, control, and flexibility in the use of surgical instruments.
Robotic surgery has been shown to offer several advantages over traditional open surgery, including smaller incisions, reduced blood loss, faster recovery, and less pain and scarring. It is often used for complex procedures that require a high level of precision and control, such as prostatectomy, hysterectomy, colorectal surgery, and gynecologic procedures.

Benefits for patients

Robotic surgery with the da Vinci system often results in less trauma to the patient, with smaller incisions, reduced scarring, and less pain compared with traditional open surgery.
This advanced approach also helps reduce the risk of infection, minimize blood loss, and support a faster recovery.
Robotic surgery also helps patients with complex medical conditions achieve better outcomes and return to their daily lives sooner.

The da Vinci robotic surgical system includes one arm equipped with a camera and additional arms fitted with surgical instruments. From a computerized console positioned near the operating table, the surgeon controls these robotic arms while viewing the procedure on a high-definition, magnified, three-dimensional display of the surgical site.
