Robot-Assisted Surgery
Advancement Through Technology
Robot-assisted surgery is a modern development in minimally invasive surgery. The robot functions as an extended arm of the surgeon, allowing for not only the highest precision but also movements impossible for the human hand. For example, 540-degree rotations can be performed, movements are refined, and tremor-free precision is achieved.
More Precision for Minimally Invasive Procedures
The advantages of minimally invasive surgery are numerous: it allows for smaller incisions, leading to less postoperative pain and a reduced risk of infection. This shortens hospital stays and recovery time. Additionally, smaller scars result in fewer wound-healing complications and reduce the likelihood of incisional hernias.
More Treatment Possibilities
These advantages have lowered the barriers to minimally invasive surgery for complex abdominal procedures. With robot-assisted surgery, highly complex procedures can be more easily performed minimally invasively, benefiting both the surgeon and, ultimately, the patients.
Beyond What the Human Eye Can See
The robotic surgery system enables real-time infrared visualization through the so-called Firefly system. A fluorescent dye, harmless to the human body, is injected, making tumors visible and facilitating the safe and complete removal of tumor metastases. Moreover, the Firefly system can be used intraoperatively to check the blood flow of newly created connections (anastomoses).
