How Has Robotic Surgery (Robotic Surgery) Developed?

Developments in computer and information technologies are increasingly used today. These technologies have been combined with automatic control / robotic systems to make them more useful and advantageous. Davinci robotic surgery system was approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) in 2000 as a result of the studies performed by NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) in order to perform a surgery that may need to be performed in space, and is now widely used in the surgical treatment of many diseases.

Robot Performing the Surgery?

"Does a robot do the surgery?" We can easily say "no" to this question. It is a surgeon, not a robot performing the operation. In robotic surgery, the surgeon commands the robot, and the arms on the patient console carry out the operation by simultaneously reflecting all the commands received from the surgeon.
The most important difference is that the surgeon can see the operation area much more clearly and closely, 3-dimensionally from his own eye thanks to the robot's capabilities, is less tired because of sitting and can use many similar advantages.



DA VINCI ROBOTIC SURGERY

Da Vinci Robot is a very successful medical technology that performs robotic surgical operations. In operations performed with the Da Vinci Robot, surgery is performed through tiny incisions. It provides high success with very low side effects compared to traditional methods, as well as a fast recovery phase.

 

The da Vinci robotic surgery system offers many advantages to the surgeon and the patient over other surgical methods.

The Advantages Of Robotic Surgery



  • A smaller surgical incision (less surgical scar) - A better and more detailed view of the area to be operated on.
  • More protection of normal tissues (for example: nerve tissue)
  • Less bleeding - Less hospital stay (earlier discharge)
  • Surgical complications also have advantages such as better results (shorter recovery / less encounter in urinary incontinence and possible erection problems after prostate cancer).
  • Robotic surgery can be performed in patients who are suitable for laparoscopic surgery and for operations that require an upright Trendelenburg (head down) position.

In What Situations Do We Use The Robot?

Robotic surgery can perform all surgical procedures that can be performed with laparoscopy in all different branches. Therefore, all operations that our people know as closed surgery can be performed with robotic surgery. Among these, a wide range can be listed, from prostate surgeries to cardiovascular surgeries, from gall bladder surgeries to gynecology surgeries. The aim of the applications called “minimally invasive surgery”, which is the new surgical trend of our age, is to perform the surgery required for the health of the patient with the least damage to the surrounding tissues and with an approach that protects the organs as much as possible. This is important for the benefit of the patient as well as the success of the surgery and the low number of side effects.



Why Robotic Surgery?

Thanks to a camera that enters the patient's abdominal cavity through small incisions and a few surgical tool sticks, there is no major surgical wound on the patient's abdomen, and postoperative recovery and return to normal life are faster and easier. The advanced situation in robotic surgery, which is also the advantage of laparoscopy, is that the surgeon can see the area of operation closely, in 3D and in the finest detail, can distinguish and protect small nerves and vessels, in open surgery, even in cases where the surgeon's hand and instruments cannot enter or damage the environment, it is almost artificial. Working like a hand, the robot transfers the outside movements of the surgeon's hand to the inside with one-to-one precision and perfects the operation. The unlimited internal mobility of the robot arm, performing several surgical instrument functions at the same time, causing much less bleeding and shorter recovery period are the main reasons for turning to robotic surgery.
