Dr. Amir L. Bastawrous, a colon and rectal surgeon at Swedish Cancer Institute, describes the significant advantages of robotic colon surgery in colon and rectum resections. The advantages include small incisions, improved visualization, and improved dexterity for the surgeon. It has also been suggested that robotic surgery creates less blood loss and, therefore, a lower infection rate. Smaller incisions result in less pain and a more rapid recovery. Most patients go home on the second or third day following robotic colon surgery. For more information on robotic colorectal surgery, visit [ Ссылка ].
