Robot-Assisted Cholecystectomy (gallbladder surgery)

Definition

Robot-assisted cholecystectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that involves the removal of the gallbladder using advanced robotic technology. The surgeon controls the robotic arms, which provide enhanced precision, flexibility, and control during the operation. This approach typically results in smaller incisions, reduced pain, and faster recovery time compared to traditional open surgery.
