A roving da Vinci surgical robot stationed in the city gave hundreds of surgeons, oncologists and physicians a feel of this cutting edge advance in surgery last week.

Robotic Surgery scores over conventional surgery as it enables a high degree of precision and minimises blood loss, dramatically reducing post-operative recovery time and costs.

T.B. Yuvaraja, an eminent surgeon at Mumbai’s Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital shared his experience of performing robotic surgeries on hundreds of urology cancer patients. 

 

Yuvaraja helped demystify questions from prominent surgeons from Ruby Hall Clinic, Jehangir Hospital, Aditya Birla Memorial Hospital, Armed Forces Military Hospital – Cardio Thoracic Centre Pune and Deenanath Mangeshkar Hospital among others.
 
Getting a close-up look at the roving da Vinci® surgical robot surgeons and doctors got an understanding of how robotic surgery works. 
 
Maharashtra has about a dozen surgical robots in Mumbai and Nagpur. Cancer patients from neighbouring Ahmednagar, Aurangabad and Nashik districts will benefit from Robotic Surgeries once Pune hospitals equip themselves with da Vinci Surgical Robot.
 
Vattikuti Technologies is gearing up to enhance access to Robotic Surgery, covering specialised cancer centers, large government hospitals and small hospitals in non metro cities.

The imperative behind this drive is the quest to conquer cancer. Robotic Surgery has proven superior outcomes in Urology, Oncology, Gynecology, General Surgery and Head and Neck surgery.
 
Adoption of Robotic Surgery by government hospitals will ensure treatment to people who can’t afford private healthcare but deserve the latest medical attention. The government hospitals typically adopt a dual pricing system--charge only those who can afford.
