Surgeons perform a groundbreaking surgery that marks a significant milestone in telesurgery, heralding a new era in the accessibility and delivery of patient care in India.
Telesurgery, also known as remote surgery, allows surgeons to perform procedures on patients who are not physically present in the same location. This is made possible through the use of robotic systems that are controlled by the surgeon from a distance, with real-time data and visual feedback ensuring precision and safety.
By transcending geographical barriers, telesurgery can make high-quality surgical care accessible to remote and underserved regions, where the availability of specialized medical expertise is often limited.
The procedure involved the use of state-of-the-art robotic technology, meticulously operated by a team of highly skilled surgeons. The team, led by renowned experts in laparoscopic and robotic surgery, leveraged their extensive experience and the capabilities of the robotic system to achieve a flawless execution. This landmark surgery not only demonstrated the feasibility and safety of remote operations but also set a precedent for the future of minimally invasive surgical procedures in India and beyond.
The robotic surgery advantage is the unparalleled precision it offers. The robotic system’s high-definition, 3D visualization, coupled with its dexterous instruments, allows surgeons to perform delicate operations with enhanced visibility and control. This precision is particularly crucial in complex surgeries where the margin for error is minimal.
Moreover, patients undergoing robotic surgery experience several advantages over traditional open surgery, including smaller incisions, reduced pain and discomfort, lower risk of infection, and quicker return to daily activities. These benefits align with a patient-centric approach, emphasizing not only the success of the surgical procedure but also the overall well-being and recovery of the patient.
World Laparoscopy Hospital is not only known for performing pioneering robotic surgeries but also for its comprehensive training programs. The hospital serves as a center of excellence for training surgeons from around the globe in the nuances of robotic surgery
The range of procedures performed robotically at World Laparoscopy Hospital includes urology, gynecology, and gastrointestinal surgery.
Commenting on the training program, Founder of the Hospital and Chief Surgeon Dr. R.K. Mishra says his hospital trains in both the DaVinci Surgical System and Made in India Mantra Robot.
“We are dedicated to providing the best training opportunities for surgeons worldwide. The inclusion of both the DaVinci Surgical System and the Made in India Mantra Robot in our curriculum reflects our commitment to innovation and excellence in surgical education. The training program consists of hands-on training sessions, virtual simulations, and access to state-of-the-art robotic surgical equipment,” says Dr Mishra.
Surgeons who complete the program will receive certification from the World Laparoscopy Hospital.
