Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences (KIMS) in association with Vattikuti Foundation, a major global player with a specific focus in robotic surgery recently performed the most advanced gynaecological robotic surgeries for first time in the state of Andhra Pradesh. Department of Gynaecology at KIMS successfully performed a sacrocolpopexy and tubal recanalisation using robotic assistance.
KIMS is soon going to perform 40 gynaecological robotic surgical procedures. The surgeries are going to be performed by professor David Eisenstein, senior gynaecological robotic surgeon from Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit USA along with the expert team of the KIMS.
Some gynaecologic procedures enable surgeons to access the target anatomy using a vaginal approach, which may not require an external incision. But for complex hysterectomies and other gynaecologic procedures, robot-assisted surgery is the most effective, least invasive treatment option available now.
Through tiny, one to two cm incisions, surgeons can operate with greater precision and control, minimising the pain and risk associated with large incisions while increasing the likelihood of a fast recovery and excellent clinical outcomes.
With Robotic assistance now gynaecologists can perform hysterectomies, myomectomies, urogynaecology or pelvic reconstructions, endometriosis, and lymph node biopsies. The need for large abdominal incisions is virtually eliminated informed professor Neena Desai, senior consultant gynaecologist–KIMS.
The major advantage of robotics assisted surgery is that the incisions made are tiny so the recovery from surgery is extremely quick. Some other major advantages of robotic surgery are precision, 3-d magnification, decreased blood loss, less pain and lesser hospital stay informed Dr Bhaskar Rao, cardiothoracic surgeon and managing director and chief executive officer of KIMS.
KIMS Hospital has used the robot-assisted technology to benefit patients suffering from plethora of problems like urology (prostate, kidney, and urinary bladder), colorectal and now gynaecology surgeries. Soon they are also going to add other specialties such as ENT, cardiac surgery, gastro intestinal surgery and liver resections.
