Da Vinci robotic surgery
The da Vinci surgery in Ibiza, within your reach.
What is Da Vinci robotic surgery?
Da Vinci robotic surgery in Ibiza marks a before and after in the field of minimally invasive operations, offering a cutting-edge technique that guarantees exceptional precision and safety in a variety of surgical interventions. This advanced system allows surgeons to perform complex procedures with superior accuracy, thanks to the use of small-sized tools coupled with a state-of-the-art robotic arm.
Surgeons control each of the robot’s movements remotely, using a specialised console that extremely accurately replicates manual movements, facilitating operations with greater control and dexterity in hard-to-reach areas.
This innovative technological approach offers multiple clinical benefits for patients, not only during the surgical procedure, but also in the pre- and post-surgery phases. Advantages include faster recovery, fewer complications and smaller scars, contributing to a better overall patient experience.
Parts of Da Vinci equipment
The Da Vinci system consists of three main components, each designed to facilitate minimally invasive surgery with maximum precision:
- Patient trolley: This is the operating component of the Da Vinci system, equipped with four mobile, interchangeable arms mounted on a single column. These arms are responsible for handling the optics and 8 mm diameter surgical instruments, which are over 48 cm long, allowing access to the patient’s most complex anatomies in a precise and efficient manner.
- Surgical console: Represents the control centre of the system. From the console, the surgeon operates both the optics and the surgical instruments, using two hand controls and several foot pedals. This level of control offers greater precision and ergonomics, allowing the surgeon to perform movements with unparalleled accuracy.
- Vision Tower: This is the image processing core of the system, where real-time three-dimensional vision is obtained. The tower also houses other accessory equipment essential to the operation of the Da Vinci system, such as the electrosurgical unit and insufflators, which assist the surgeon during surgery.
Surgeries using the Da Vinci equipment
In General Surgery, the Polyclinic Group uses the Da Vinci system in procedures such as colon cancer operations, providing significant benefits for patients. Thanks to this advanced technology, patients can resume their normal diet in considerably less time compared to traditional surgeries. In addition, post-operative recovery is faster and the risk of complications is significantly reduced.
In the case of obesity surgery, the Da Vinci system allows the use of various techniques tailored to the specific needs and characteristics of each patient, offering a personalised approach that maximises results.
In abdominal wall surgery, robotic surgery has revolutionised the surgical possibilities. This method combines the advantages of open dissection with the benefits of minimally invasive surgery, achieving the same results as open surgery, but with smaller incisions, minimising the impact on the patient’s body and speeding up the recovery process.
Radical Prostatectomy with da Vinci System
The Da Vinci system was initially introduced in the field of urology, where it has proven to be a highly effective tool for improving patients’ recovery and quality of life. A clear example of this is prostate cancer surgery, where significant reductions in both surgery and post-operative recovery times have been achieved.
Thanks to this technology, patients experience less pain and bleeding after surgery. In addition, common complications such as urinary incontinence or sexual dysfunction tend to resolve more quickly compared to traditional surgeries. Overall, the use of the Da Vinci system contributes to a significant reduction in postoperative complications.
Another great advantage is that patients can return to their social and work activities in a shorter period of time, recovering their normal life more efficiently and with better quality.
For the patient, the small incisions will have better aesthetic results than in the case of traditional surgeries. This will result in less bleeding, less need for transfusions, less postoperative pain, and a shorter hospital stay.
Da Vinci robotic surgery represents a before and after in surgery because thanks to it surgeons can perform interventions that were unthinkable until recently, greatly improving efficiency and allowing patients to return home much sooner after surgery.
The surgeon performs his work in a very comfortable way, sitting at the console, and with his controls directs the robot over the patient, accessing the most complex areas of the body, with excellent visualization of the anatomy.
The movements that he performs through the robot are very precise and without physiological tremor of the hands.
Surgery time is reduced thanks to these tools that facilitate and improve your work.
