Benefits of Robotic Surgery
Robotic surgery has a number of advantages over traditional open surgery, including:
- Minimally invasive – performed through tiny incisions
- Faster recovery
- Less pain/blood loss
- Smaller wound/scar
- Less chance of infection
It’s important to note that, just like any surgery, robotic surgery involves risk, such as a risk of infection and other complications. Talk with your doctor about the benefits and risks of robotic surgery and how it compares with other techniques
