Da Vinci Robotic Surgery
What is Robotic Surgery
Robotic surgery is an advanced form of minimally invasive or laparoscopic (small incision) surgery where surgeons use a surgeon-controlled robot to assist them in certain surgical procedures.
The robot’s “hands” have a high degree of dexterity, allowing surgeons the ability to operate in very tight spaces in the body that would otherwise only be accessible through open (long incision) surgery.
Benefits & Advantages
Benefits
- Shorter hospitalization
- Reduced pain and discomfort
- Faster recovery time and return to normal activities
- Smaller incisions, resulting in reduced risk of infection
- Reduced blood loss and transfusions
- Minimal scarring
Advantages
- Greater visualization
- Enhanced dexterity
- Greater precision
- Greater range of motion
Compared to open surgery and general laparoscopic surgery, robotic and minimally invasive surgery results in smaller incisions resulting in less pain and scarring.
Robotic surgery allows surgeons to perform complex surgical tasks through tiny incisions using robotic technology. Surgical robots are self-powered, computer-controlled devices that can be programmed to aid in the positioning and manipulation of surgical instruments. This provides surgeons with better accuracy, flexibility and control.
