Understanding Robotic Cancer Surgery
Robotic surgery is not a machine operating on its own. It’s a technology that enhances a surgeon’s capabilities, capabilities, enabling them to operate with unmatched accuracy.
During this procedure:
- Tiny keyhole-sized incisions are made.
- Miniature instruments and a high-resolution 3D camera are inserted.
- Dr. Shiva Kumar operates from a console, where every hand movement is translated into smooth, scaled-down instrument movements.
- This allows for precise control, especially in hard-to-reach areas of the body where traditional tools may fall short.
Why Robotic Surgery Is Preferred
While open surgeries require large incisions and longer recovery, robotic surgery offers a modern solution with several patient-centric benefits:
Enhanced Vision
The surgeon views a high-definition, 3D magnified image, which enhances accuracy and reduces the likelihood of error.
Greater Precision
The robotic arms mimic wrist movements but offer evengreater flexibility , helping to operate around delicate nerves and blood vessels.
Less Pain & Scarring
Smaller incisions mean less trauma, reduced pain, minimal blood loss, and almost invisible scars.
Faster Recovery
Most patients recover faster and resume daily activities within a few days, withshorter hospital stays and fewer complications.
Shorter Hospital Stay
Laparoscopic surgery often allows patients to be discharged in just 2–3 days, helping reduce hospital costs and exposure.
When Is Robotic Cancer Surgery Recommended?
Robotic-assisted surgery is ideal when cancer is located in narrow or complex regions that are tough to access via traditional methods. This includes:
- Prostate cancer
- Kidney or adrenal tumors
- Colon and rectal cancers
- Liver or pancreas tumors
- Cervical, uterine, and other gynecologic cancers
- Esophageal or throat tumors
Is Robotic Surgery Better Than Other Techniques?
Dr. Shiva Kumar emphasizes that the success of cancer surgery doesn’t solely depend on the technique used;it depends on the surgeon’s skill and experience.
That said, robotic surgery offers superior comfort and a lower risk of complications for the patient, especially when performed by a trained expert like Dr. Kumar, who has completed specialized training in robotic and laparoscopic oncology abroad and has successfully conducted hundreds of such procedures in India.
The Surgical Process – What to Expect
Before the surgery, you’ll undergo medical assessments (blood tests, ECG, imaging) to ensure you're ready for the procedure. The surgery itself involves:
- 1. Small incisions are made under general anesthesia.
- 2. Insertion of robotic instruments and a 3D camera.
- 3. Dr. Shiva Kumar controls the surgery from a console beside you, guiding each movement in real-time.
- 4. Post-surgery, patients are typically up and walking the next day and discharged within 2–3 days.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1.What’s the difference between robotic and laparoscopic cancer surgery?
Both are minimally invasive, but robotic surgery offers better 3D vision, a greater range of motion, and higher precision, especially in tight areas such as the pelvis or deep abdomen.
2. Is robotic cancer surgery safe?
Yes. In fact, it’s often safer than open surgery. With smaller incisions and less bleeding, the risk of complications is reduced.
3.How long does it take to recover?
Recovery is usually quick. Most patients resume normal activity within 2–3 weeks, which is significantly faster than with open procedures.
4. Will I have a big scar?
No. Only small keyhole incisions are made, so scars are minimal and heal well over time.
5. What is the cost of robotic cancer surgery in Bangalore?
The cost of robotic surgery depends on several factors, like the type of cancer, hospital stay duration, and diagnostic needs. While robotic surgeries may be slightly more expensive upfront, they often result in reduced costs related to post-surgery complications and shorter recovery times. At Shree Srinivasa Uro Care, Dr. Shiva Kumar offers cost-effective treatment without compromising quality, and you receive a personalized estimate following your consultation.
