How It Works:
The Da Vinci System consists of:
-
Surgeon's Console – The surgeon controls the robotic arms while viewing a high-definition, 3D magnified image of the surgical site.
-
Patient-Side Cart – Contains robotic arms equipped with surgical instruments and a camera, which perform precise movements.
-
Vision System – Provides a detailed, immersive 3D view of the patient's anatomy.
-
EndoWrist Instruments – Specialized tools that mimic the movement of the human wrist, allowing greater flexibility.
Key Benefits of the Da Vinci System:
✔ Minimally Invasive – Smaller incisions, less blood loss, and reduced scarring.
✔ Higher Precision – Eliminates hand tremors and allows for delicate, fine movements.
✔ Enhanced Visualization – 3D HD camera provides a clear and magnified view of the surgical area.
✔ Faster Recovery – Patients experience less pain and shorter hospital stays.
✔ Reduced Risk of Infection – Smaller incisions lower the chance of complications.
Applications in Surgery:

Urology (prostatectomy, kidney surgery)
-
Gynecology (hysterectomy, endometriosis treatment)
-
Cardiac Surgery (mitral valve repair, coronary bypass)
-
