Robotic Surgery
What is Robotic Surgery
Robotic surgery refers to a modern surgical approach in which surgical procedures are performed with a robotic system. These systems include a technology that allows the surgeon to control the precise movements of his hands through surgical robots. Robotic surgery was developed to make surgical procedures more precise, provide surgeons with better vision and control, improve patient recovery, and reduce complications.
Which Diseases Does Robotic Surgery Treat
Robotic surgery is a technology commonly used in a number of surgical procedures and can be used to treat many different diseases. Here are some of the diseases for which robotic surgery is frequently used:
Prostate Cancer: Robotic surgery is frequently used in the treatment of prostate cancer. Robot-assisted prostatectomy can speed up the recovery process by providing a minimally invasive method.
Uterine Cancer: In uterine cancer operations, robotic surgery may be preferred to remove the uterus or perform other surgical interventions.
Stomach Cancer: In cases of stomach cancer, robot-assisted surgery can be used for procedures such as tumor removal or stomach resection.
Heart Surgery: Robotic surgery can be used in heart surgery procedures such as coronary artery bypass surgeries and heart valve repairs.
Intestinal and Colon Diseases: Conditions such as intestinal or colon cancer, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are the areas where robotic surgery is used.
Renal Diseases: Robotic surgery may be preferred for the surgical intervention of renal cancer or renal tumors.
Urological Diseases: Robotic surgery can be used in the treatment of urological diseases such as renal tumors, renal calculus, ureteropelvic junction stenosis.
Gynecological Diseases: Robotic surgery can be used in the surgical treatment of gynecological problems such as uterine fibroids, endometriosis, and ovarian cysts.
What Procedures Does Robotic Surgery Perform
Robotic surgery is used as a technology that can perform a number of surgical procedures. These procedures are generally called minimally invasive surgery (closed surgery) and are performed by directing surgical instruments through the robot-assisted surgery system which is the surgeon's control console. Here are some of the commonly performed procedures of robotic surgery:
Prostatectomy: A surgical procedure performed to remove the prostate in the treatment of prostate cancer.
Hysterectomy: A surgical procedure to remove the uterus, often used for uterine cancer or other uterine-related problems.
Coronary Artery Bypass Surgeries: A surgical procedure performed to treat congestion in the heart vessels.
Heart Valve Repairs and Replacements: Surgical interventions performed to correct or replace heart valve problems.
Gastrointestinal Surgery: Various procedures related to the gastrointestinal system, such as stomach, intestine and colon cancer operations, reflux surgery, obesity surgery.
Urological Surgery: Surgical treatments of urological problems such as removal of renal tumors, treatment of renal calculus, correction of ureteropelvic junction stenosis.
Gynecological Surgery: It is used in the treatment of endometriosis, uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts and other gynecological problems.
Renal Surgery: Treatment of renal cancer, removal of renal tumors and surgical interventions in kidney transplantation.
Thoracoscopic Surgery: Surgical interventions in the chest cavity, such as lung cancer operations or procedures such as mediastinoscopy.
Robotic Surgery at Liv Hospital
While developing technology facilitates every area of life, it also brings solutions for diseases that seem impossible to cure in the field of health. We aim for the best results possible and great patient comfort with robotic surgeries. Robotic surgery, which is considered to be the highest point of surgery, is successfully performed in many surgeries at Liv Hospital. At Liv Hospital Robotic Surgery Center, important operations are successfully performed in branches such as general surgery, gynecology, urology and cardiac surgery.
Robotic Surgery System
While developing technology facilitates every area of life, it also brings solutions for diseases that seem impossible to cure in the field of health. We aim for the best results possible and great patient comfort with advanced laparoscopic and robotic surgeries. Robotic surgery, which is considered to be the highest point of surgery, is successfully performed in many surgeries at Liv Hospital.
At Liv Hospital Robotic Surgery Center, important operations are successfully performed in branches such as general surgery, gynecology, urology and cardiac surgery. The Robotic System consists of a robotic tower (made up of a binocular, optical camera and three robotic arms) and a surgeon-controlled console that provides a high-resolution 3D image of the operation site and is the control area of three robotic arms. The device provides a 3D image with a true depth field for hands control (left) through binocular, dual optics (right). The Robotic System is used in cancer, urology and heart surgeries and all laparoscopic operations.
Robotic surgery systems make the work of surgeons easier with groundbreaking robotic technology and offer patients the chance to return to their regular life faster. Da Vinci Xi increases surgical capability with thinner and lighter arms. When compared to traditional open operations, the most important advantages for patients are rapid recovery in a short time, less pain, cosmetic comfort thanks to small incisions and minimal blood loss.
