The Robotic Surgery Center at Gachon University Gil Medical Center has reached a milestone of 2,000 robotic surgeries. The hospital launched its Robotic Surgery Center in 2019 with the introduction of the state-of-the-art fourth-generation da Vinci Xi surgical system. In November of last year, the hospital added another da Vinci robot, further enhancing its capabilities in high-precision and complex surgeries.
The da Vinci Xi system at Gachon University Gil Medical Center features high-definition 3D imaging, a visual field 10 times wider than traditional laparoscopic systems, and highly maneuverable robotic arms that provide exceptional precision. Robotic surgery allows for minimal skin incisions, reducing pain, scarring, and bleeding, while enabling surgeons to operate delicately in hard-to-reach areas. This leads to fewer complications and shorter hospital stays, ultimately improving patient outcomes.
The hospital performs the highest number of robotic surgeries in the field of urology, where precision is especially critical due to the intricate anatomy. Robotic surgery is also actively performed in a wide range of specialties, including thyroid cancer, cervical and ovarian cancers, colorectal diseases, and breast cancer.
The Robotic Surgery Center offers personalized patient care through specialized coordinators from each department, who assist with the entire process—from diagnosis and hospitalization to surgery, recovery, and discharge.
