As far as procedures of hysterectomy are concerned, there are two common approaches used by surgeons, these two approaches are; Abdominal hysterectomy (Open surgery approach) and MIP hysterectomy. [3] Abdominal hysterectomy is an open surgery approach. In this surgery, the surgeon cuts a 5 to 7 inch cut in the belly region and removes uterus or the part of uterus through that cut. The cut is later on sealed. MIP hysterectomy is a Minimal Invasive Procedure (MIP). MIP hysterectomy can be done in one of the several ways. Either the surgeon carries out vaginal hysterectomy, making cut through vagina to remove uterus, or the surgeon may go with laparoscopic hysterectomy. Laparoscopic surgery (A surgery using camera to visualize the organ being …show more content…
Approved by FDA in 2000 after being successfully shown to be effective in prostate cancer treatment. These robots are currently leading the era of robot assisted surgeries. [1] The robot has three main constitute components, a cart, holding light sources and cameras, called as vision cart, a chair like cart where the surgeon sits technically called as master console and a last cart where the arms of instrument and camera are placed, called as moveable cart. As there are two cameras being used to generated the image so the image generated is 3 dimensional. Master console, the cart where the surgeon sits, is equipped with a computer system that converts images into in depth 3 dimensional images and controllers through which the surgeon controls the arms of robot and camera focus etc. The movable cart is having instruments attached with cables that are precisely controlled by surgeon. The da Vinci’s robot system is an example of surgical systems based on the Master-Slave approach, where the robot is a slave controlled by a surgeon acting as its master.
