What is Robotic Surgery?
Robotic surgery is an advanced form of minimally invasive surgery in which the surgeon controls specialised instruments using a robotic surgical system.
The robot does not independently decide or perform the operation. The surgeon remains in control throughout the procedure.
Robotic systems can provide a magnified three-dimensional view and allow controlled instrument movements during selected operations.
Whether robotic surgery is appropriate depends on the specific condition, procedure and individual circumstances.
