Robotic surgery, also known as “Robot-Assisted Surgery”, allows many complex procedures to be carried out in a more flexible, precise and more controlled way than classic surgical techniques. Thanks to the three-dimensional camera and the zoom feature on this robotic device, every single touch is made with a perfect sharpness achieved by a minimally invasive method. This also makes it possible to perform microsurgery by focusing only on the patient’s operating area. Robotic surgery offers a comfortable operative process to the patient as well as to the doctor. This method, which takes the advantages brought by the conventional laparoscopic method one step further, is accepted as today’s most advanced technological product and most developed surgical method.
THE COMFORT THAT COMES WITH ROBOTIC SURGERY CONTINUES NOT ONLY DURING THE OPERATION BUT ALSO AFTERWARDS
With robotic surgery, operations are performed through incisions smaller than a centimetre. This also means that there is almost no mark at all in the operating area. Especially in gynaecological operations, in operations performed through the navel the surgical scar remains at levels that cannot be seen from the outside with the naked eye. In operations performed on the other areas of the body, the incisions are generally made at points that will not be visible from the outside. In cases where this is not possible, although the operation scar is visible to the eye at first, about a year after the operation it disappears to a degree at which it cannot be made out by the eye. This also opens the way for women who do not want an operation scar on their body to prepare for surgery in a psychologically positive way as well.
AFTER THE OPERATION
After many operations, the recovery process can be at least as difficult for most patients as the operation itself. However, after operations performed with robotic surgery, patients benefit from all the advantages of closed surgery; they feel very little pain and use few painkillers, are discharged early and return quickly to daily life. Again, after robotic surgery the patient both stays in hospital for less time and can return to their social life more quickly. Patients can be discharged within a short time and be reunited with their loved ones, get on their feet and return to their social lives. Patients being able to carry on with their lives from where they left off is also reflected positively in psychological terms during the treatment process. This situation is accepted as extremely important for patients whose treatment will continue after the operation. Again, thanks to the operation being carried out through an extremely small incision, the risk of a complication being seen after the operation is reduced to a minimum level. This also removes the need for any additional treatment.
