  1. ROBOTIC SURGERY By Dr. Girish Nelivigi What is robotic surgery? It is a new technique of doing surgery wherein the surgeon operates through a robot. It is more accurately called robot-assisted surgery as the robot assists the human surgeon. Does the robot do the surgery? No. It is the human surgeon who does the surgery. To understand the concept, we will discuss the three main ways in which surgeries are done. The oldest and still widely practiced method is open surgery The next stage in the evolution of surgery is laparoscopic surgery or Minimally Invasive Surgery or Key Hole Surgery Robotic surgery is an extension of laparoscopic surgery The advantages of robotic surgery as compared to laparoscopic surgery are many. They are: As the surgeon is seated during surgery his fatigue and pain levels are much lower. This is an advantage in major and prolonged surgeries. Better vision Articulated instruments Disadvantages of robotic surgery The biggest problem with robotic surgery is the cost. Another drawback of the robotic system is that it occupies a very big space in the operating room. Setup time: It takes about 30- 60 minutes to set up the robot before starting the surgery. Where does robotic surgery stand today? Robotic surgery has definite advantages in certain urological surgeries. These are radical prostatectomy, radical cystectomy with reconstruction, and partial nephrectomy. However other urological surgeries can be done with almost equal ease by robotic or laparoscopic methods and robotic surgery offers no advantages.
