What is Robotic-Assisted Gynecological Surgeries

Surgical care for gynecological cancers has advanced dramatically in recent years. One of the most significant innovations is robotic-assisted surgery, a minimally invasive technique that combines the skills of your surgeon with the precision of robotic technology. At Apollo Athenaa, we offer robotic-assisted gynecological surgeries for selected cases of uterine, cervical, ovarian, and endometrial cancers, as well as for certain benign but complex gynecological conditions.

In robotic surgery, the specially-trained gynec-oncology surgeon controls the robotic arms in real time from a console. The system translates the surgeon’s hand movements into extremely precise actions inside the body. Robotic assisted surgery uses sophisticated surgical systems such as the da Vinci® Surgical System, to allow the surgeon to operate through tiny incisions with enhanced 3D vision, fine control, and high precision.

How the Procedure
is Performed

At Apollo Athenaa, every surgical step is carefully planned and performed by experienced surgeons with a focus on safety, precision, and recovery.

This surgery is performed under general anesthesia.
Small incisions are made in the abdomen (usually 4–5).
Carbon dioxide is used to gently expand the area for better visualization.
A high-definition 3D camera and robotic arms are inserted through the incisions.
The surgeon operates from a nearby console, using hand and foot controls to guide the robotic arms.
The system translates the surgeon’s movements into precise micro-movements inside the body.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are robotic-assisted gynecological surgeries?

01

These are minimally invasive procedures where surgeons use a robotic system to perform gynecological surgeries with enhanced precision, flexibility, and control. The surgeon remains in full control of the robot at all times.

What types of gynecological surgeries can be done robotically?

02

Robotic assistance can be used for procedures such as hysterectomy, myomectomy (fibroid removal), endometriosis surgery, prolapse repair, and certain gynecological cancer surgeries.

What are the benefits of robotic-assisted surgery?

03

Benefits include smaller incisions, less blood loss, reduced pain, minimal scarring, shorter hospital stay, and faster recovery compared to open surgery.

Is robotic surgery safe?

04

Yes. When performed by trained and experienced surgeons, robotic-assisted gynecological surgery is safe and offers outcomes comparable to or better than conventional approaches.

How long is the recovery period?

05

Most patients are discharged within 24–48 hours and can return to daily activities sooner than with open surgery. Recovery time varies depending on the type of procedure performed.
