Centre for Robotic Surgery

With the da Vinci Surgical System (Robot), surgeons are now able to offer a minimally invasive option for complex surgical procedures as well. Robotic Surgery, computer assisted surgery and robotically assisted surgery are terms for technological developments that use robotic systems to aid in surgical procedures. Robotic Surgery was developed to overcome both the limitations of MIS and enhance the capabilities of surgeons performing open surgery.

Some of the major benefits experienced by surgeons using the Robotic Surgical System over traditional approaches have been

• Greater Surgical Precision
• Increased Range of Motion
• Improved Dexterity
• Enhanced Visualisation
• Improved Access

Whereas the benefits experienced by the patients include

• Shorter Hospital Stay
• Lesser Pain
• Lower Risk of Infection
• Lesser Blood Loss
• Fewer Transfusions
• Less Scarring
• Faster Recovery Quicker Return to Normal Daily Activities
