Robotics Surgeries, Gunjan Clinic

Robotic surgeries are known for their precision, faster patient recovery, low complications, low blood loss, and less post-operative pain. A 3D image with high magnification and resolution is visible to the surgeon. It helps the surgeon see the treatment area. The doctor can work their way by using the console. Robotic laparoscopy is the future of surgery. It can mimic complex movements with precision and has dexterity akin to human hand. We use Da Vinci X robot to perform surgeries like gall bladder stone removal, appendix, hernias, uterus, cancer surgeries etc.

Treatments

Gall bladder stone removal
Hernia repair
Appendix removal
Bariatric surgery (weight reduction)
Surgery of uterus and ovaries
Cancer Surgeries

FAQ's

Robot assisted surgery is a surgical technique wherein there is a robot controlled by a distantly connected console. The doctor manages the console which enables the robot to mimic their hand movements and perform surgical procedures.

Robotic surgery has numerous advantages like high precision, minimal scarring, minimally invasive, reduced errors, remote operation, improved dexterity, reduced risk of infection and improved surgical outcomes.

Laparoscopic surgery is guided by a camera and the expert performs the procedure on the patient. However, a robotic surgery is performed from a distance with the console being controlled by the expert to perform the surgical operation.

The cost of equipment and maintenance is higher for robotic surgery compared to laparoscopic surgery. However, the cost is overcome by the ease of surgery for patients and doctors. The loss of working hours is minimal.

Yes, robotic surgery is safe. With minimal contact and high precision, it is a minimally invasive procedure. It ensures fewer complications in post-operative care.

Recovery times vary based on the type of surgery, but generally, patients experience faster recovery with robotic surgery compared to traditional open surgery and laparoscopic surgery. Many patients are able to return to normal activities within a day.

Most patients report almost no pain after robotic surgery and minimal trauma to surrounding tissues.

We perform thorough tests before giving a nod for robotic surgery. Your current health status, complexity of the surgery and medical history are taken into account before proceeding.

Robotic surgery can be used for a variety of procedures across specialties such as urology, gynecology, general surgery, thoracic surgery, orthopedics, and ENT. Consult with our surgeons to learn about your options.

No surgery, be it any technique, is risk free. While robotic surgery is generally safe, it still carries some risks common to all surgeries, such as infection, bleeding, and anesthesia complications. Additionally, if the robotic system malfunctions, the surgeon can switch to traditional methods to complete the procedure.
