Robotic Oncology Surgery | First in Rajasthan | Apex Hospitals, Jaipur

Robotic Oncology Surgery

Robotic oncology surgery is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive technique for treating various types of cancer. It involves using robotic systems, like the SSI Mantra or other advanced robotic platforms, to assist surgeons in performing precise and complex cancer surgeries. Compared to traditional surgery, these robotic systems provide the surgeon with enhanced visualization, skills, and control.

Robotic Surgery for Oncology Treatments

• Robotic Hysterectomy: Commonly used to treat endometrial or cervical cancer.
• Robotic Lung Resection: Performed for early-stage lung cancer, such as lobectomy or wedge resection.
• Robotic Head and Neck Surgery: This includes procedures for cancers of the throat, thyroid, and other areas of the head and neck region.
• Robotic Pelvic Exenteration: A complex surgery for advanced cancers in the pelvic region, such as rectal, bladder, and gynaecological cancers.
• Robotic Liver Resection: Used for removing liver tumours, including hepatocellular carcinoma and metastatic cancers.

Robotic Oncology treatment at Apex Hospitals

Facing a cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming, but at Apex Hospitals, we understand that undergoing cancer treatment can be a challenging journey. Our priority is to provide personalized care tailored to each patient's needs. Our robotic surgery specialists work within a comprehensive, multidisciplinary surgical oncology unit, ensuring that every case is thoroughly evaluated. During our multidisciplinary tumour board meetings, surgeons, oncologists, and other experts collaborate to develop a customized treatment plan considering the patient's unique tumour, genetic factors, and personal preferences.

Our approach to cancer surgery is focused on two main objectives:

1. Effectively fighting the cancer to achieve the best possible outcome.

2. Ensuring a smooth and rapid recovery for the patient.

If robotic surgery is a viable option for your cancer, our surgeons will discuss whether it offers advantages over traditional open surgery. Robotic procedures are often recommended because they lead to less invasive surgeries, quicker recoveries, and more precise tumour removal.

Benefits of robotic surgery in treating cancer

Robotic surgery offers several critical benefits in treating cancer, making it a preferred choice for many surgical oncology procedures. These advantages include:

1. Enhanced Precision: The robotic system allows for exact movements, enabling surgeons to perform complex procedures more accurately.

2. Minimally Invasive: Robotic surgery is performed through small incisions, reducing trauma to the body compared to traditional open surgery.

3. Faster Recovery: Patients typically recover more quickly due to smaller incisions and less tissue damage, allowing them to return to daily activities sooner.

4. Reduced Pain and Scarring: Smaller incisions result in less post-operative pain and minimal scarring, enhancing comfort and cosmetic outcomes.

5. Lower Risk of Complications: The surgery is more precise and less invasive, reducing the risk of complications such as infections and excessive bleeding.

6. Shorter Hospital Stay: Patients often experience shorter hospital stays, leading to quicker return home and faster recovery.

7. Improved Visualization: The robotic system provides surgeons with high-definition, 3D views of the surgical area, offering better visualization of tumours and surrounding tissues than traditional methods.

8. Quicker Return to Additional Treatments: For cancer patients requiring further treatments like chemotherapy or radiation, the faster recovery time from robotic surgery allows them to begin or continue these therapies with minimal delay.

Cancer treatment is evolving rapidly with technological advancements, and robotic surgery is one of the most transformative methods. This innovative approach has changed the landscape of cancer treatment, resulting in improved patient outcomes, shorter recovery times, and a more precise and efficient surgical experience for healthcare professionals.
