Robot Surgery Center
Continuous updating is an essential part of Centro Médico ABC medical practice. Robot-assisted surgery is a procedure that has been performed since 2017 and is becoming more and more frequent, due to the advantages it offers over laparoscopic surgery.
Robot surgery allows for more precise surgical interventions using robotic instruments and an endoscopic video camera, maintaining at all times a three-dimensional view of the surgical field and the maneuvers performed.
Robot Surgery System with More than 1089 robot-assisted surgeries since 2017
The robot system that is used in operating rooms, does not perform independent movements without human monitoring, is rather a computer-assisted surgery system, which is operated and controlled by a surgeon, so the robot does not replace the surgeon, but it rather constitutes a tool that assists you under your supervision.
The Da Vinci System is the one we use at Centro Médico ABC and has three components:

Advantages of
Robot Surgery
Robot surgery, being a minimally invasive procedure, offers us already known advantages of laparoscopic surgery: less post-operative pain, smaller incisions, shorter hospital stay, a speedy recovery and, consequently, greater patient satisfaction. However, unlike laparoscopic surgery, robot surgery has significant advantages, some of which have already been mentioned, but which are detailed below:

Robot Surgery Committee
The use of our surgical robot is strictly supervised by the Robotic Surgery Committee, which supervises the optimal training of the personnel involved in its management, the indications for use in certain procedures, its execution and the results obtained by the different surgeons.

Testimony: robotic surgery treatment for prostate cancer
Normally, when we think about cancer, we all believe that it will never happen to us and we do not even perform the recommended routine tests. We share Mr. Luis Revilla Nallem’s testimony, a robotic surgery patient who shares how he found out he had prostate cancer, what it was like to break the news to his family, and what treatment he received.
