• Robot-assisted surgery
Since 2023, our department has been a part of the Centre for Robotic Surgery, where we offer the possibility of robot-assisted procedures. We have the Da Vinci Xi robotic system available.
Robotic surgery is the most advanced form of minimally invasive or laparoscopic surgery and uses a computer-controlled robot to assist in certain surgical procedures.
The robotic arms are controlled by the surgeon sitting in the console, whose hand movements are transferred to the instruments, which then perform the desired precise movement.
The articulations of the tools mimic the human wrist, eliminate tremors, provide an additional "hand" and, combined with increased 3D vision, all this brings high precision, speed and perfection in the execution of each movement.
The robotic system thus enables us to operate minimally invasively even on findings that would otherwise be impossible to perform laparoscopically.
The system therefore allows the performance of technically demanding procedures, such as the removal of a large uterus or fibroids, urogynaecology suspension surgeries, endometriosis surgery and surgery in severely obese patients.
Higher precision and reduced operating time lead to fewer early and late postoperative complications, reduced postoperative pain and an overall shorter hospitalization.
Main indications for robot-assisted surgery:
- Hysterectomy (removal of uterus including bulky uterus)
- Myomectomy (removal of fibroids)
- Urogynaecologic suspension procedures (management of pelvic organ prolapse or descent), sacrocolpopexy, repair of rectovaginal and vesicovaginal fistulas
- Surgery in patients with a BMI over 35 and in extremely obese patients
- Gynaecologic oncology procedures (uterine cancer)
Recovery from robotic surgery is very similar to recovery from laparoscopic surgery. Most patients can safely go home very soon after the robotic procedure and thus quickly return to normal life.
