During the procedure:
•Less blood loss.
•Less trauma.
•Smaller cuts.
After the procedure:
•Less pain.
•Less scarring.
•Fewer complications.
•Shorter hospital stays.
•Shorter recovery time.
•Quicker return to normal daily activities.
•Fewer infections.

• The surgeon operates the console, which
provides a three-dimensional view of the
surgical site.
• The surgeon's movements are translated to
the robotic arms, which have surgical
instruments attached to them.
• The robotic arms are inserted through small
incisions in the patient's body, allowing the
surgeon to perform the surgery with
greater precision and control.
