What is Robotic Surgery?

Robotic surgery, also called robot-assisted surgery, is an advanced minimally invasive technique where surgeons use a specialised robotic system to perform procedures with high precision and control.

The system converts the surgeon’s hand movements into smaller, highly accurate movements inside the body. It also provides:

  • 3D high-definition vision
  • Better flexibility and range of motion
  • Enhanced precision during surgery

Robotic surgery is not performed by a robot on its own. The surgeon is always in complete control at every step – the robotic system is a highly advanced tool that helps doctors perform delicate procedures more safely and accurately than traditional surgery.

No. The surgeon performs the surgery at all times. The robotic system enhances the surgeon’s precision and range of motion but does not act on its own.

Yes. Robotic surgery is highly safe and widely used globally. It typically carries fewer risks than traditional open surgery, with lower rates of infection, blood loss, and complications. Sugam Hospital is NABH accredited, ensuring the highest safety standards.

No – robotic surgery usually causes significantly less pain than open surgery. Smaller incisions mean less tissue disruption and faster, more comfortable recovery.

Less pain, faster recovery (most patients discharged in 1–3 days for routine procedures), minimal scarring, shorter hospital stay, and lower risk of complications compared to traditional open surgery.

Robotic surgery at Sugam Hospital is used for urology (prostate, kidney, bladder), cancer surgery, gynaecology (hysterectomy, fibroids, endometriosis), and gastrointestinal & general surgery (hernia, liver, bariatric, and more).

Duration depends on the procedure. Most robotic surgeries take a similar time to conventional surgery, with the benefit of better precision and fewer complications.

Most patients are discharged within 1–3 days for routine procedures. Complex surgeries may require a longer stay, which your surgeon will discuss with you in advance.

Recovery is significantly faster than open surgery. Most patients can walk within 24–48 hours and return to normal activities within 1–3 weeks depending on the procedure.

Scars are minimal – robotic surgery requires only a few small incisions (typically under 1 cm), leading to very discreet and less visible scarring.

Yes, robotic surgery is covered under many health insurance policies and corporate cashless schemes in India. Our team at Sugam Hospital will help you check your eligibility and assist with the documentation process.

Sugam Hospital, Chromepet, Chennai is equipped with the SSI MANTRA Robotic Surgical System – one of India’s most advanced robotic surgery platforms.

Yes. Sugam Hospital’s robotic surgery centre at Chromepet is the nearest advanced robotic surgery facility for patients from Tambaram, Pallavaram, Perungalathur, Guduvanchery, and the surrounding areas of South Chennai.
