Robotic surgery was first introduced to perform urology surgeries since these surgeries involve difficult-to-access areas through open surgeries. For example, prostate cancer surgeries can be performed easily and precisely through robotic surgeries. In the past, treatment for kidney cancers meant removing the whole kidney but with robotic surgeries removing only the tumour is possible.
Robotic surgeries make the cancers curable and offer a better quality of life for the patient after the surgery.
The cost of robotic surgeries has also come under the affordable range recently since an increasing number of hospitals now offer robotic surgery in India.
