OVERVIEWRobotic surgery is a new-age surgical approach that supports efficient cancer management. Robotic surgeries help surgeons perform complex surgical procedures with superior precision, enhanced flexibility, and better control, which is not always the case with traditional surgical procedures.

As a minimally invasive procedure, robotic surgery comes with numerous advantages, such as shorter hospital stays, reduced blood loss, faster recovery, and a good quality of life.

As the best robotic surgery hospital in India, HCG boasts a team of highly skilled robotic surgeons who are experienced at managing colorectal cancers, endometrial cancers, stomach cancers, esophageal cancers, and many other cancers through robotic surgery with excellent clinical outcomes.

How is Robotic Surgery Performed?

Robotic surgeries use small incisions and 3D imaging to allow doctors to control the robotic arms from a console. The robotic arms are equipped with EndoWrist technology, which enables precise and intricate movements that are not possible with human hands.

The surgeon controls the robotic arms based on highly detailed, magnified images captured by a camera fixed to one of the robotic arms. This allows the robotic arms to access remote parts of the body that are typically inaccessible with conventional surgical approaches.

HCG houses the advanced da Vinci Robotic Surgery System, which has four interactive robotic arms; of the four, three hold the surgical tools, and the fourth arm carries a 3D camera. Its high-definition vision and 10X magnification help surgeons reach inaccessible regions in the body and operate on the tumour successfully.

There will also be another surgeon at the site who will ensure that the patient is positioned properly and that the robotic arms are functioning as they should.

Advantages of Robotic Surgery

Better-quality clinical outcomes

Reduced risk of surgical complications

Reduced blood loss and lesser pain

Shorter hospital stays

Minimal scarring due to smaller incisions

Minimal scarring due to smaller incisions

Frequently Asked Questions

Is robotic surgery better than open surgery?

Although robotic surgeries are far more advantageous than open surgeries, some cancers will still require open surgeries, and your treating doctor is the best person to decide that. Various factors such as the type of cancer, disease stage, size, location, and the patient’s overall condition are considered before recommending surgery or any other treatment.

In some cases, robotic surgery may be a better option, and, in some cases, open surgery could lead to better outcomes. If you want to know if robotic surgery is a better option for you, you can talk to your doctor.

As it is a procedure with minimal invasion, hospitalisation time is not long. Your doctor may require you to remain under observation for a day or two, but after that, you will likely be discharged from the hospital, unless your doctor advises otherwise.

No, there will be a surgeon sitting at the console to control the robotic arms. These arms work just like a surgeon’s hands, only with additional precision and enhanced ability to reach inaccessible regions and operate on the tumours efficiently.

Yes. Robotic surgeries are safe. Throughout the surgery, a team of specialists will monitor the patient's position and ensure that the robotic arms are functioning correctly and operating on the tumour effectively. Your safety is a top priority, and there is no need to worry. If you have any concerns, it's best to discuss them with your doctor so that they can provide you with the necessary guidance to make informed decisions about your health.
