How has Robotic Surgery transformed abdominal surgery?
Numerous abdominal operations are now performed utilizing robots as a result of the quick adoption of new surgical technology and the high expectations of both patients and the general public.
The most advanced method available today is robotic surgery, sometimes referred to as robot-assisted surgery.
Dr. Srikanth Gadiyaram, is a senior consultant surgeon with an experience of 20 years and has performed over 12,000 Gastrointestinal surgeries. He is an expert in minimally invasive surgery (Laparoscopic and Robotic Surgeries)
What is Robotic Surgery Exactly?
The practice of doing surgery with extremely small tools coupled to a robotic arm is known as robotic surgery. Through a computer, the surgeon manages the robotic arm.
The computer shows the surgery site in a high-definition, enlarged, 3D perspective, enabling the surgeon to observe the region in detail.
The surgeon directs a group of additional medical specialists who help with the procedure.
Advantages of Robotic Surgery
- Smaller Incisions
- Less scarring
- Less blood loss
- Improved surgical outcomes
- Lesser hospital stays
- Lower risk of complications and infection
But Why Robotic Surgery?
Compared to conventional approaches, robotic surgery improves the surgeon’s precision, flexibility and control while doing the procedure as well as giving them improved site visibility.
Surgeons may carry out delicate and intricate treatments using robotic surgery that could be challenging or impossible with traditional techniques.
When the robotic arm is in the belly, using the surgical instruments is simpler for the surgeon than doing laparoscopic surgery using an endoscope.
Which Surgeries can be Performed?
- Gallbladder removal
- Anti- Reflux Surgery
- Bariatric Surgery
- Esophageal Cancers
- Colorectal Cancers
- Pancreas Cancer
- Liver Cancer
- Laparoscopic gastrectomy
What is the difference Between Traditional Surgeries and Robotic Surgeries?

Surgeons may carry out delicate and intricate treatments using robotic surgery that could be challenging or impossible with traditional techniques.
When the robotic arm is in the belly, using the surgical instruments is simpler for the surgeon than doing laparoscopic surgery using an endoscope.
A two-dimensional camera is used to aid in manual surgery in the traditional sense. While performing robotic surgery, the surgeon uses a console and a three-dimensional camera to manipulate equipment from outside the patient’s body. Consequently, the surgeon may perform procedures more precisely and with less blood loss.
For doctors to perform robotic surgery successfully, they must go through specialized training. This technology has a high learning curve, so it could take time for surgeons to become proficient in its use.
Dr. Srikanth Gadiyarm, a Senior Surgical Gastroenterologist at Sahasra Hospitals, Jayanagar, stated , “ We have been successfully conducting Robotic Gastro intestinal procedures at the cost of regular laparoscopic procedures
