What Is Robotic Surgery?

 

The use of robotics takes minimally invasive techniques into a new era, further minimizing the physical and emotional impact of surgery on patients. Surgeries are performed through small incisions, which replace the large incisions needed for conventional open surgeries.

Patient Benefits 

  • less patient trauma and pain
  • minimal scarring
  • less blood loss
  • faster recovery
  • shorter hospital stays

Robotic Procedures 

Advanced Technology

Robotically-assisted minimally invasive surgery represents a third generation of surgery, one which builds upon the advances to open surgery introduced by minimally invasive surgery. Robotic technology takes surgery beyond the limits of the human hand, introducing precise, versatile instrument movement combined with three-dimensional visualization of the operative site.
