Liv Hospital Announces Expanded Program for Da Vinci (Single Port) Robotic Surgery

Liv Hospital has launched an expanded program for Da Vinci (Single Port) Robotic Surgery, extending its use across urology, gynecology, thoracic, and select general surgery cases. The system performs complex procedures through a single small incision, using flexible instruments and a high-definition camera controlled by a surgeon from a specialized console. Unlike autonomous systems, every instrument movement is directed by the surgeon, ensuring precision in micro-movements. The program highlights the platform’s technical advantages, including three-dimensional high-definition visualization, flexible instruments for confined spaces, and tremor reduction technology for fine motion tasks. These features are integrated into surgical planning and case selection at Liv Hospital’s operating suites. Patient benefits include smaller external wounds, reduced scarring, and lower tissue trauma compared to multi-incision procedures. The minimally invasive approach may also shorten recovery times, including reduced hospital stays and quicker resumption of daily activities, though outcomes depend on individual health and procedure complexity. Applications span urology (prostate, kidney, and bladder interventions), gynecology (fibroid removal, endometriosis treatment, and hysterectomies), and select thoracic and general surgeries like hernia repairs. Patient eligibility is assessed through medical evaluations, imaging, and consultations to determine suitability for the single-port technique. Preoperative protocols follow standard clinical pathways, while postoperative care emphasizes smaller wound management, lower discomfort, and early mobility. Liv Hospital stresses that successful robotic-assisted procedures rely on surgical expertise, multidisciplinary coordination, and proper infrastructure. The hospital joins global institutions adopting robotic-assisted systems, reinforcing its commitment to advanced surgical care through this expanded program.
