The Da Vinci surgical system, which has gained significant interest in the medical world in recent years, is among the leading health services of the Ekol International Hospital. This state-of-the-art system, led by expert doctors, delivers patients the highest level of health care.
This system offers an innovative approach to traditional surgical methods, enabling surgeons to perform their operations more precisely, effectively, and minimally invasively. Thanks to the coordinated movements of the robotic arms, surgeries result in less tissue damage and faster recovery times.
The Da Vinci surgical system strengthens Ekol International Hospital's leading position in healthcare by offering patients safer and more effective treatment options. This technological advance, combined with the knowledge and experience of specialist doctors, enables patients to experience fewer post-operative complications and faster post-surgical recovery. Thus, Ekol International Hospital continues to provide a reliable health experience to its patients with the superior services provided by the Da Vinci surgical system.
The Da Vinci surgical system has been used for over 25 years in many fields, including general surgery, gynecology, urology, breast surgery, pediatric surgery, and CVD. It has been used in more than 12 million surgeries worldwide.
The Da Vinci robotic surgical system consists of three main components interconnected through fiber optic connections in the operating room environment and works entirely according to the doctor's instructions. These components are the Patient Cart, the Surgeon Console, and the Vision Cart.
The patient cart is where the patient is connected to the robotic surgical system. It consists of four robots. In one arm of the patient cart, the endoscope is fitted with instruments controlled by the doctor, allowing the physician to see the inside of the body.
The surgeon console is the control unit of the surgeon who performs the operation, which helps to move the arms in the patient's head unit and transmits all the surgery's hand movements without interruption.
There is a stereo viewer for 3D vision, a right-left panel for the surgeon to make ergonomic adjustments, and a touch middle panel for zoom and image settings. Foot pedals are available for endoscopic motion, instrument-to-instrument transition, and activation of the energy unit.
The robotic surgical system gives the surgeon great precision and control. Because the movements of the robotic arms are rigorously controlled, surgeons can perform challenging and sensitive surgeries more easily. This has a positive impact on the outcome of the surgery.
The endoscope and the system’s processor are installed in the vision cart. The vision cart has a touch screen and a power unit. The hospital unit and the surgeon console are connected to the unit by fiber optic cables.
The Da Vinci surgical system allows observing the surgical area with high-resolution 3D images. It allows you to make better surgical planning with 16x larger visualization.
Absolutely not! The surgeon performs the surgery completely under his own control, using the most suitable instruments for the patient.
While using the Da Vinci robotic surgical system, surgeons can choose from various sensitive, multifunctional instruments with full wrist capabilities. This option creates an environment where surgeons can use the best and most suitable instrument for the type of surgery to be performed and operate minimally invasively for more patients.
The surgeon performs the surgery using the components in the surgical console, the 3D endoscope (camera), and instruments on the vision cart. The instruments used can make wrist movements that are impossible in laparoscopic surgery. This allows the surgeon to easily perform all the instrumental movements he wishes to make within the patient.
The Da Vinci surgical system has many advantages:
The Da Vinci Robotic Surgery System is revolutionizing different surgical fields today. This technological miracle maximizes surgeons’ skills while helping patients recover faster. In this article, we will examine in detail the areas in which the Da Vinci Robotic Surgery System is used and the advantages it offers.
The Da Vinci surgical system represents an essential milestone in urology surgery. Due to the superior features of this technology, erection problems can be minimized, especially in men's surgeries.
Compared to traditional surgical methods, the Da Vinci surgical system allows surgeons to use their hand skills in a highly precise and rigorous manner, accelerating the patient's recovery process by offering a less invasive approach. This helps patients experience less pain and discomfort in the postoperative period, reducing the risk of post-operative erection problems.
The Da Vinci surgical system is one of the most valuable examples of integrating modern medicine with technology, ensuring men's health and quality of life at the highest level.
Heart disease has become one of the greatest challenges of modern medicine. Fortunately, the Da Vinci surgical system has made significant strides in the field of cardiovascular surgery.
This system offers the possibility of performing heart surgery with minimally invasive methods. This reduces patients' post-operative pain, speeds up recovery, and shortens hospitalization. Heart surgery can now be done more safely and effectively.
Problems with the organs of the digestive system can negatively affect people's daily lives. Gastrointestinal surgery treats disorders of the stomach, intestines, and other digestive system organs.
Surgery in this area is becoming more effective thanks to the Da Vinci surgical system. The system provides surgeons with high-precision images, allowing surgeries to be performed with less tissue damage. This speeds up the patient's recovery process while minimizing post-operative discomfort.
The Da Vinci robotic surgery provides numerous advantages in obesity surgery, also known as bariatric surgery. The Da Vinci robotic system allows the surgeon to perform surgery with a high-resolution camera and precise instruments. These instruments mimic the surgeon's hand movements with robotic arms, enabling more accurate and controlled movements.
Robotic surgery is generally less invasive, allowing obesity patients to recover faster and spend less time in the hospital. Robotic surgery requires smaller incisions, resulting in better cosmetic outcomes. Compared to traditional open surgery, there's less scar formation.
The Da Vinci robotic surgery has been introduced recently for ear, nose, and throat surgeries, especially procedures like neck dissection. Neck dissection is a surgical procedure commonly used to treat head and neck cancers.
Traditionally, this operation may require a large skin incision, leading to problematic cosmetic results. However, the Da Vinci robotic surgery allows these operations to be performed in a minimally invasive manner.
The Da Vinci robotic surgery is utilized in many head and neck surgeries, including treatment for snoring. Particularly for more severe forms of snoring like obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), surgical treatments might be necessary. These treatments can modify anatomical structures to prevent the soft palate from collapsing and to widen the airway.
The flexibility of robotic arms allows the surgeon to make more precise and controlled movements. This results in less tissue traumatization, helping with faster healing, making this method highly effective in snoring treatment.
Minimally invasive surgery is an essential step in modern surgical practice. The basis of this approach is faster recovery and less risk of complications with less tissue damage.
Minimally invasive surgery is a surgical approach that is performed with smaller incisions than conventional surgery methods. In this method, surgeons perform surgery through special cameras and fine surgical instruments. This benefits patients with less pain, shorter hospitalization, and faster recovery. The Da Vinci surgical system is one of the minimally invasive surgical methods. This allows the patient to be operated with 8 mm cuts opened during surgery.
Minimally invasive surgery brings many advantages. Some of them are:
The level of safety of a robotic surgeon involves many factors. First, this technology helps surgeons perform surgeries more accurately. Thanks to the fine and coordinated movements of the robotic arms, surgeons are less likely to make mistakes during surgery. This increases the success of the surgery and ensures that patients are safe.
Operations with smaller cuts make patients experience less pain and discomfort. As a result, the patient's recovery processes are accelerated and the hospital stay is shortened, reducing the risk of infection.
Robot-assisted surgical technology is a safe approach when used properly. But every patient's condition is different, and surgeons need a careful assessment. When choosing a surgical method, the patient's health, type of surgery, and surgeon's experience should be considered.
