Robotic surgery is an advanced form of minimally invasive surgery that combines the expertise of an experienced surgeon with modern robotic technology. It enables the surgeon to perform selected complex procedures with enhanced visualization, precision and control while using small surgical incisions.
Dr.Tarun Mittal is an experienced laparoscopic, bariatric and robotic surgeon with extensive experience in minimally invasive surgery. His professional profile includes advanced training in minimal access surgery and long-standing surgical practice at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, New Delhi.
Patients from Noida, Greater Noida, Ghaziabad and Delhi NCR can consult Dr.Tarun Mittal regarding whether robotic surgery may be appropriate for their condition.
Robotic surgery, also known as robot-assisted surgery, is a minimally invasive surgical technique in which the surgeon controls specialized robotic instruments.
The robotic system does not perform the operation independently. The surgeon remains in control throughout the procedure and directs the movement of the instruments.
The suitability of robotic surgery depends on the patient’s diagnosis, medical history and the specific surgical procedure required.
For appropriately selected patients, robotic-assisted surgery may offer several potential advantages compared with traditional open surgery.
Generally performed through small incisions rather than the larger incision required for many open operations.
The robotic surgical system can provide the surgeon with magnified visualization of the operating area.
Fine instrument movements can be useful during technically complex procedures.
Some patients may experience less discomfort and faster return to routine activities; recovery varies.
The source material identifies selected bariatric and gastrointestinal procedures as areas where robotic technology may be considered.
Selected procedures may include sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass and other bariatric procedures, depending on individual assessment.
May be considered for selected gastrointestinal procedures where enhanced visualization and precise instrument control can be beneficial.
Diagnosis, complexity, previous abdominal surgeries, overall health, investigations and surgeon assessment guide the approach.

What is robotic surgery?
Robotic surgery is a minimally invasive technique in which a surgeon controls specialized robotic instruments to perform an operation.
Does the robot perform the surgery by itself?
No. The robotic system does not operate independently. The surgeon controls the system throughout the procedure.
Is robotic surgery better than laparoscopic surgery?
Not necessarily. Both are minimally invasive approaches. The most appropriate technique depends on the patient’s condition and the procedure being performed.
Is robotic surgery used for weight loss surgery?
Robotic technology may be used for selected bariatric procedures. Dr.Tarun Mittal’s clinical expertise includes bariatric, laparoscopic and robotic surgery.
How long does recovery take after robotic surgery?
Recovery depends on the type of surgery, the patient’s health and the complexity of the procedure. Your surgeon will provide individual postoperative guidance.
