Do you know?

3. What is robotic surgery?
A minimally invasive
surgery for complex
procedures performed
by surgeons using
robotic system.

4. Why robotic surgery?
With robotic capabilities,
surgeons access tight-and
difficult-sites where the
human wrist cannot reach.

5. Why robotic surgery?
Complex tumor
removal surgeries
Gallstones surgeriesOrgan transplants
Useful for challenging procedures

6. Do the robots perform surgeries
on their own?
The surgeon is the master controlling and
guiding the robotic system very precisely.
No

7. How does it work?
A console with joy
sticks for the control
3D vision system for
imaging & navigation
Bedside robotic arms
with tools to operate
Robotic system includes

8. How does it work?
Access through
single or multiple
ports/incisions
Operate with great
accuracy & less fatigue
View the insides under
10X magnification
Surgeon controls the robotic system to

9. Robotic advantage over laparoscopy
Better view - 3D,
360 vision.
Better access and
positioning with
small, flexible robotic
wrists & tools.

10. Robotic system improves success rates
over laparoscopy or open surgery due to
Better access
and positioning
Great freedom
and flexibility
Ambidextrous
controls

11. Robotic system improves success rates
over laparoscopy or open surgery due to
Zero hand tremors More comfort and less
fatigue

12. Are there any risks?
Post-surgical
infections
Exposure to long-
duration anesthesia
Hernia at the
incision site
Robotic surgeries include minimal
health risks such as:

13. How robotic surgery can
cut on hospital stay?

14. Shorter hospital stay and quick
recovery over laparoscopy or open
surgery due to
Smaller incisions Less painMinimal scarring

15. Shorter hospital stay and quick
recovery over laparoscopy or open
surgery due to
Less blood loss Fewer complications

16. Hospital stay
Robotic surgery
(4.9 days)
Open surgery
(6.1 days)
