What is the definition or description of: da vinci robotic surgery?

Robotic Surgery: Robotic surgery is an extrapolation of laparoscopic surgery; however, robotic arms and instruments provide an increase range of motion and degrees of freedom. This allows for more complex procedures to be done via a laparoscopic approach.

Assisted laparoscopy: Da vinci robotic surgery is laparoscopic surgery with the assistance of a robot. The robot consists of robotic arms with laparoscopic instruments which are used to do laparoscopic surgery in areas that are difficult to access in the abdomen. The console allows for 3d hd visualization and allows the surgeon to control the surgical instruments using their fingertips.

Robotic assisted: The da vinci robot is equipment that is used to manipulate the laparoscopic instruments during surgery. It allows for greater flexibility and dexterity than that available with current laparoscopic instruments. Allowing for less pain and quicker recoveries.

Da Vinci robot: It means that part or all of your operation was performed using the assistance of the da vinci robotic system. The surgeon sits at a console and controls the robot which is connected to instruments that are inserted inside of the patient's body.
