What types of surgeries can be performed using minimal access robotic surgery?
Minimal access robotic surgery can be utilized for various surgical procedures, including but not limited to:
Gynecologic surgeries: Robotic-assisted procedures such as hysterectomy, myomectomy, and ovarian cystectomy.
- Urologic surgeries: Robotic-assisted prostatectomy, nephrectomy, cystectomy, and pyeloplasty.
- Gastrointestinal surgeries: Robotic-assisted procedures like colectomy, gastric bypass, and esophagectomy.
- Cardiac surgeries: Robotic-assisted procedures for mitral valve repair, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), and atrial septal defect repair.
- Thoracic surgeries: Robotic-assisted lung lobectomy, thymectomy, and mediastinal tumor resection.
What are the advantages of minimal access robotic surgery?
Some advantages of minimal access robotic surgery include:
- Reduced trauma and scarring: The use of small incisions results in less tissue damage, reduced scarring, and decreased postoperative pain.
- Enhanced precision and dexterity: The robotic system provides the surgeon with a greater range of motion and more precise control over surgical instruments, allowing for delicate and intricate procedures.
- High-definition visualization: The robotic system offers a magnified, 3D view of the surgical site, enabling the surgeon to see details with exceptional clarity.
- Less blood loss: Minimal access robotic surgery techniques often result in reduced blood loss during the procedure.
- Faster recovery and shorter hospital stay: Due to the minimally invasive nature of the surgery, patients typically experience a faster recovery and shorter hospital stay compared to traditional open surgery.
