Robotic Urology Surgery
A Simple Guide by a Leading Indian Urologist in UAE
Urology problems like kidney stones, prostate cancer, or bladder issues can be scary. But thanks to modern technology, treatments today are safer, faster, and more comfortable than ever before. One such advanced option is robotic urology surgery.
i’ll explain what robotic surgery is, how it works, its benefits, and why Indian urologists in the UAE, like Dr. H Sanjay Bhat, are leading this transformation in patient care.
First Things First: What Is Robotic Urology Surgery?
Robotic surgery uses a machine called the Da Vinci Surgical Robot, which helps urologists perform surgeries with extreme precision.
But don’t worry—it’s not like a robot doing the surgery by itself.
Instead:
- The surgeon controls the robot from a nearby console
- The robot’s arms copy the surgeon’s hand movements, but with more accuracy and flexibility
This means even the most delicate surgeries can be done with smaller cuts, less pain, and faster healing.
Why Is Robotic Surgery Better?
Compared to open surgery or even traditional laparoscopy (keyhole surgery), robotic urology surgery offers many benefits:
Health Benefits:
- Smaller incisions – less damage to your body
- Minimal pain and bleeding
- Lower chances of infection
- Quick recovery time – most patients go home in 2–3 days
- Better long-term results, especially for prostate surgery (helps with urine control and sexual function)
Comfort & Convenience:
- Shorter hospital stay
- You can return to work and family life sooner
- Less scarring and quicker return to normal activities
This is why robotic surgery is fast becoming the first choice for urology treatments in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and across the UAE.
What Types of Urology Surgeries Can Be Done?
Robotic-assisted surgery is suitable for many urology conditions in both men and women, as well as children.
Some of the most common robotic urology procedures include:
- Prostate cancer surgery
- Kidney removal (nephrectomy) for tumors
- Bladder removal (cystectomy)
- Pelvic organ surgeries (e.g. organ prolapse)
- Pediatric urology – for kids with kidney/bladder issues
- Laser surgeries for stones and urinary tract blockages
What Types of Urology Surgeries Can Be Done With Robots?
Robotic urology surgery is helpful for many serious and sensitive health problems. With this technology, doctors can perform even the most complex procedures with great accuracy and care. Here are some of the most common robotic urology procedures, explained in simple words:
1. Prostate Cancer Surgery (Robotic Prostatectomy)
The prostate is a small gland in men that helps produce semen. If cancer grows in this gland, it often needs to be removed.
Using robotic surgery, doctors can remove the prostate without damaging nearby nerves, which helps patients recover better and keep control over urine and sexual function.
2. Kidney Removal for Tumors (Nephrectomy)
Sometimes, if a kidney has a cancerous tumor or is badly damaged, it needs to be removed.
Robotic surgery allows for safe removal of the kidney with small cuts and less pain. It can also be used to remove only the tumor, saving the rest of the kidney (called partial nephrectomy).
3. Bladder Removal (Cystectomy)
In some cases of bladder cancer, the entire bladder may need to be taken out.
This is a complex surgery, but robotic technology helps the surgeon do it with great care, reducing the chance of complications and helping the patient recover faster.
4. Pelvic Organ Surgeries (e.g. Organ Prolapse)
In women, the bladder or uterus can drop down from their normal position—this is called pelvic organ prolapse.
Robotic surgery can help repair and lift these organs back into place, with less discomfort and quicker recovery.
5. Pediatric Urology (Surgeries for Children)
Children sometimes have urinary or kidney problems from birth. Robotic surgery can be used to fix these delicate issues with high precision, causing less pain and scarring, which is especially important for small children.
6. Laser Surgeries for Stones and Blockages
Kidney stones or blockages in the urinary tract can cause severe pain and infections. Robotic-assisted laser surgery is often used to break stones or clear narrow passages, helping the urine flow freely again.
