Dr. Ashwin K.R., an esteemed Consultant in Surgical Oncology at Aster Whitefield Hospital, highlights the significant effectiveness of Robotic Surgery and its advantages in cancer treatment. He discusses how this advanced approach has transformed cancer surgeries.
Benefits of Robotic Surgery
Historically, traditional surgery posed a considerable risk of bleeding, complications, and substantial pain. However, with Robotic Surgery, precision surgery is now feasible even within constrained anatomical spaces such as the pelvis, chest, and neck. Robotic surgery encompasses technological advantages, including a three-dimensional camera and miniaturized instruments capable of 360-degree motion scaling. This feature ensures that the surgeon's tremors do not adversely affect the patient. Moreover, this allows for intricate surgery with fewer complications, preserving critical structures adjacent to the cancer. This method offers patients numerous benefits, including reduced pain, expedited recovery, and minimized risk of blood loss.
