Robotic technology advances minimally invasive surgery to the next level. It requires smaller incisions than traditional surgery, so there are less tissue dissection and less trauma to the body, as well as decreased blood loss. Patients have reduced swelling, which allows them to return to daily activities faster and with less pain.
One of the biggest benefits of the da Vinci Xi is the access it gives general surgeons to the entire abdomen. “We can treat multiple quadrants of the body, which allows us to do procedures we couldn’t do before,” says Dr. R.K. Mishra.
Robotic Technology has changed our lives in unprecedented ways over the last decade, and we are committed to investing in the latest advances that improve the lives of our patients,” says Dr. R.K. Mishra. “The da Vinci Xi robot is an important new contribution to our expanding robotic surgery, which greatly benefits our Minimal Access Surgery community.”
Robotic surgery has already become the standard of care for General Surgery and Gynecological cancer, and the technology is now changing the way general surgery is performed. Conditions ranging from colorectal cancer, diverticulitis, and hernia repair to colon resection and anti-reflux surgery are benefitting from the use of robotics. Even most bariatric surgery is being performed with robotic assistance.
