da Vinci Xi ROBOTIC-ASSISTED Surgery

This highly advanced da Vinci Xi Surgical System enables surgeons to perform complex robot-assisted surgery through tiny incisions with enhanced 3D-HD vision, precision and control.

da Vinci Xi Surgical System

Sunway Medical Centre proudly offers patients the advanced technology of minimally invasive surgery with the da Vinci Xi Surgical System - the latest and first of its kind robotic surgery in Malaysia.

Powered by state-of-the-art technology, the da Vinci Xi Surgical System enables surgeons to perform complex and reconstructive surgery with tiny incisions, and enhance visualisation, precision and control.

The da Vinci Surgical System

The da Vinci Surgical System was first introduced in 1999 and received clearance by the FDA in 2000. It has evolved rapidly in terms of technology advancement and clinical application.

To date, over 7,500 da Vinci Xi robotic surgical systems have been installed worldwide, and more than 1.8 million robotic surgeries have been done by skilled robotic surgeons in the fields of urology, gynaecology, cardiothoracic, general surgery, and paediatric surgery. The high adoption of this technology is due to its proven clinical benefits for patients and ease of use.

Since the robotic-assisted surgery is done with small incisions, potential benefits include:

	Fewer complications
	Less blood loss
	Faster healing time
	Shorter hospital stay
	Minimal scarring
	Lower conversion rate to open surgery

How the DA VINCI XI Surgical Robot Works

The da Vinci Xi Surgical System consists of an ergonomic surgeon console, a patient-side cart with four interactive arms, a high-performance vision system and proprietary EndoWrist® instruments.

Some advantages of robotic-assisted joint replacement surgery include:

Endowrist Instrumentation

Provide surgeons with natural dexterity and range of movement far greater than the human hand

3D HD Vision

3-dimensional, enhanced high definition vision with 10 times magnification – offering surgeons an immersive view of the operation field

Intuitive Movement

The surgeon’s hand movements are scaled, filtered and seamlessly translated into robotic arms and instruments
