Robotic Surgical System in Ankara is available at 1 hospital in the Voumed network.

A robotic surgical system is a computer-assisted platform that lets a surgeon operate with greater precision, either through a few small keyhole incisions or by guiding instruments along a carefully planned path. In soft-tissue surgery the surgeon sits at a console and controls wristed instruments and a magnified three-dimensional camera mounted on robotic arms. In orthopaedic and neurosurgical work a robotic arm helps position cutting guides or instruments according to a plan built from imaging. In both cases the surgeon makes the decisions and performs the operation; the system does not act on its own. International patients often look for robotic surgery for prostate, kidney, gynaecological, colorectal and joint replacement operations.

At a glance

Type: surgeon-controlled robotic platform for keyhole, orthopaedic and neurosurgical operations
Used for: urology, gynaecology, general and colorectal, thoracic and weight-loss surgery, joint replacement and selected neurosurgery
Key benefit: steady, magnified and precisely guided instrument movement in hard-to-reach areas
Anaesthesia: general anaesthesia for most operations; spinal anaesthesia is often possible for robotic knee replacement
Where it is used: operating theatres of accredited hospitals with trained robotic surgical teams
