Complex Surgeries Made Easier with Robotic Technology · thehansindia.com

Doctors are using robots and special camera-guided tools to perform difficult surgeries.

Dr. Krishna Chowdary discussed these methods at a press meeting in Nagarkurnool.

He said Yashoda Hospitals can perform complicated intestinal operations with advanced laparoscopic techniques.

Without these techniques, some operations could take as long as 24 hours.

Robotic technology is also used for certain kidney, ovary and gastroenterology conditions.

These operations use smaller cuts in the body.

Smaller cuts can help patients heal faster and return to normal activities sooner.

The doctor also said health insurance can cover robotic and laparoscopic procedures.
