About this Procedure
Robotic cancer surgery is a form of minimally invasive surgery in which the surgeon removes a tumour using thin instruments attached to robotic arms. The surgeon sits at a console a few feet from the patient and controls the arms, while a camera gives a magnified view inside the body. The robot does not operate by itself; it is a tool that the surgeon guides throughout.
Robotic techniques can be used for many cancer operations, depending on the organ involved and the hospital's programme. Examples include robot-assisted lung lobectomy, colorectal surgery (colectomy), hysterectomy for gynaecological cancers, and transoral robotic surgery for some throat cancers. Whether a robotic approach suits you depends on the type, size and position of the tumour and on your overall health.
The operation is done under general anaesthetic. The surgeon makes one or more small incisions and places ports (thin tubes) through them for the camera and instruments. Compared with traditional open surgery, robotic surgery is associated with less pain during recovery, reduced blood loss, a lower risk of infection, smaller scars and a shorter hospital stay. Occasionally the surgeon needs to switch to an open operation with a larger incision for safety.
