Example of the patient's abdominal anatomy showing the effects of robotic surgery, a form of minimally invasive surgery (key-hole surgery), performed nine days earlier. The surgeon usually sits near the operating table at a computer console viewing the operating region and guiding miniature robotic arms inserted through small incisions. The advantages of this technique include high surgical accuracy, the avoidance of large incisions, less blood loss, the patient's faster recovery and a shorter hospital stay as, in this case, s discharge after four days. | |
