How the da Vinci Surgical Robot Works
The da Vinci Surgical System consists of an ergonomic surgeon console, a patient-side cart with four interactive arms,
a high-performance vision system and proprietary EndoWrist® instruments.
Endowrist Instrumentation
Provide surgeons with natural dexterity and range of movement far greater than the human hand
3D HD Vision
3-dimensional, enhanced high definition vision with 10 times magnification – offering surgeons an immersive view of the operation field
Intuitive Movement
The surgeon’s hand movements are scaled, filtered and seamlessly translated into robotic arms and instruments
Minimally Invasive
The robot's instruments enter the body through small incisions, reducing the impact on surrounding healthy tissue.

FAQ for Robotic Surgery (da Vinci Xi)
What is Robotic Surgery with da Vinci Xi?
Robotic Surgery with da Vinci Xi is an advanced minimally invasive surgical technique that utilises robotic-assisted technology. It allows surgeons to perform precise and complex procedures through small incisions with the help of robotic arms and a high-definition 3D camera.
How does da Vinci Xi differ from traditional laparoscopic surgery?
da Vinci Xi offers enhanced precision and control through robotic arms operated by our skilled surgeons. The system provides a magnified 3D view, enabling more accurate movements and minimising the impact on surrounding tissues.
What types of surgeries can be performed using da Vinci Xi?
da Vinci Xi is used for various surgeries, including but not limited to prostatectomy, hysterectomy, colorectal surgery and bariatric surgery. Its versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of specialties.
Who is a suitable candidate for da Vinci Xi robotic surgery?
Candidates for da Vinci Xi surgery are determined based on factors such as the complexity of the procedure, the patient's overall health, and most importantly, the surgeon's evaluation.
What are the benefits of da Vinci Xi surgery for patients?
Patients can experience shorter hospital stays, quicker recovery times, less pain, and smaller incisions with da Vinci Xi surgery. The minimally invasive approach often leads to improved cosmetic outcomes as well.
How experienced are your surgeons with da Vinci Xi technology?
Our surgical team is highly experienced and extensively trained in da Vinci Xi technology. They undergo specialized training to ensure proficiency in utilising the system for optimal patient outcomes.
Will my insurance cover da Vinci Xi robotic surgery?
Coverage varies among insurance providers. We recommend checking with your insurance company to determine the extent of coverage for da Vinci Xi robotic surgery.
What is the recovery time after da Vinci Xi surgery?
Recovery times vary depending on the procedure, but da Vinci Xi surgery is generally associated with shorter recovery periods compared to traditional surgery. Your surgeon will provide personalized post-operative care instructions.
Are there any risks associated with da Vinci Xi surgery?
While da Vinci Xi surgery is considered safe, like any surgical procedure, it carries potential risks. Your surgeon will discuss these risks with you during the pre-operative consultation, and measures are in place to minimize them.
