Description

Minimally invasive intracorporeal suturing is a stressful task. Compounding the stress of this technical challenge are the significant cognitive challenges for the laparoscopic surgeon who must overcome the physical separation of the visual and physical aspects of the operation. The surgeons must ‘blend’ or bring together the view on the display and the mechanical feedback from the arms and hands in order to dexterously manipulate the tissues. Stereoscopic vision of da Vinci robot provides a significant advantage during when table drills of increasing complexity are performed with the robotic system in 3D mode compared to 2D mode. World Laparoscopy Hospital is the pioneer institute to provide da Vinci robotic surgery training.
