What is Robotic Surgery?

Robotic Surgery is an advanced form of minimally invasive (key hole) surgery for various chest diseases which involves the use of the state of art Surgical Robot to perform surgery inside the chest using 3-5 small (1-1.5 cm) cuts instead of conventional open surgery.

Robotic Surgery in Delhi and Gurgaon

The robotic system consists of three main parts

The Surgeon Console

It is the command centre which the lead surgeon uses to perform the surgery. It has a binocular view-finder which provides a magnified high definition stereoscopic (3D) vision of the inside of the chest cavity and has master controllers which the surgeon uses to perform the surgery.

The Patient Cart with Robotic Arms

The patient cart consists of the surgical system’s arms which hold the specialised ports (hollow metallic tubes) through which highly specialised wristed robotic instruments are inserted inside the chest cavity.

The Vision Cart

The vision cart is the link between the surgeon console and patient cart and houses the specialised Endo-vision system.

How does it work?

The patient is given general anaesthesia. And after preparations the surgeon makes 3-5 small 1-1.5 cms cuts on the chest through which he introduces specialised robotic ports (metallic Hollow tube). The patient cart is then attached to these ports through which specialised instruments are introduced. The lead surgeon then sits on the surgeon console and uses the master controllers to control the robotic instruments which work like miniature human hands and carry out the procedure with incredible preciseness.

Advantages of Robotic Surgery

The robotic surgical system is an advancement over the conventional minimally invasive (key Hole) surgery. It offers

  • Better Magnification
  • Stereoscopic 3 D vsison with better depth perception
  • More precise movements with filtration of tremors
  • Adds the power of human wrist at the to the instruments allowing for a much finer and natural movement

These technological advantages translates into

  • lesser blood loss
  • Lesser pain after Surgery
  • Lower incidence of post-op pneumonia
  • Reduced duration of hospital Stay
  • Reduced use of pain medication
  • Earleier return to work
  • No rib fractures during surgery
  • Better cosmetic results

Procedures done using the Robotic

  • Robotic Thymectomy for Myasthenia Gravis.
  • Robotic Thymectomy for Thymoma.
  • Robotic Lobectomy for Lung cancer/other diseases.
  • Robotic Excision of Anterior Mediastinal Mass (Dermoid cyst)
  • Robotic Excision of Posterior Mediastinal Mass (Posterior Mediastinal Tumour / Bronchogenic cyst)
  • Robotic Repair of Morgagni Hernia
  • Robotic Esophagectomy for Cancer/Other Diseases.

FAQ's 

Q. What is the cost of robotic surgery in Delhi?

The type of procedure, the intricacy of the treatment, and the medical center or healthcare facility of choice can all affect how much robotic surgery in Delhi costs. Typically, the cost of robotic surgery might vary from INR 1,50,000 to 5,00,00 and higher. It is important to speak with surgical facilities and hospitals to obtain precise information on robotic surgery costs in Delhi.

Q. Which hospital in India has robotic surgery?

In India, Medanta, The Medicity Hospital is well-known for its cutting-edge robotic surgical capabilities. This facility, outfitted with advanced robotic technology, provides a variety of robotic-assisted operations across a range of medical specializations. Robotic surgery in Delhi is performed by a highly qualified team of Medanta surgeons to increase accuracy and reduce invasiveness while offering patients cutting-edge and efficient treatment alternatives.

Q. Is robotic surgery cost-effective?

Long-term cost-effectiveness is possible with robotic surgery, despite its initial higher expenses. Shorter hospitalizations, quicker healing periods, and fewer surgical problems are among the advantages. Several medical institutions, such as Medanta The Medicity Hospital, provide reasonably priced robotic surgery in Delhi. In many cases, patients expecting reliable and successful surgical procedures find that better results and faster healing make the cost worthwhile.

Q. How painful is robotic surgery?

When compared to traditional approaches, robotic surgery is typically associated with reduced discomfort following surgery. Robotic operations include smaller incisions due to their minimally invasive nature, which lessens pain and expedites healing. Before having robotic surgery, patients are urged to talk with their physicians about pain management, since individualised pain levels may differ.

Q. Is robotic surgery safe?

Robotic surgery in Delhi is safe as long as it is carried out by qualified and experienced surgeons like Dr. Harsh Vardhan Puri. Robotic systems' accuracy lowers the possibility of problems, and the minimally intrusive technique speeds up healing and lowers the danger of infection. 

Q. Is robotic surgery successful?

There has been a lot of success with robotic surgery in Delhi. The state-of-the-art technology expedites healing, minimizes invasiveness, and improves accuracy. Among other hospitals, the Medical City Hospital has effectively performed robotic procedures, giving patients positive results in a range of medical specializations.
