At Campbelltown Private Hospital we invest heavily to provide our community with access to leading robotic assisted close to home, here in Campbelltown.
For clinically suitable patients, our experienced surgeons use advanced robotic technology for a range of surgeries. These include:
- Orthopaedic surgery – hip and knee
- General surgery/gastroenterology – small intestine and internal organs
- Gynaecology – uterus and pelvic lymph nodes
- Urology – prostate, kidneys, adrenal glands and urinary system
Orthopaedic surgery
The Velys robot is designed to assist surgeons and enhance the quality of knee surgeries during orthopaedic procedures and improve outcomes for patients. Designed to make the procedure smoother and more accurate, this surgical tool acts like a high-tech helper providing precision and guidance.
For patients, this means several benefits:
- Less invasive: The robot helps surgeons make smaller cuts, which can lead to less pain and quicker recovery times
- Improved accuracy: The technology allows for more precise placement of implants, which can improve how well the knee functions afterward
- Faster recovery: With less tissue damage and better alignment, many patients can get back to their daily activities sooner
General surgery, gastroenterology, gynaecology and urology
Campbelltown Private Hospital has the Da Vinci Xi Surgical System. This system offers surgeons and patients access to advanced surgical technologies that enhance procedural capabilities.
These innovations focus on achieving optimal outcomes for patients and enabling more complex procedures.
Our market leading robotic surgical system is the only one of its kind available in a private hospital in South Western Sydney, and allows for minimally invasive surgeries with enhanced visualisation. It features multi-point access suitable for a range of surgical specialties, including urology, colorectal surgery, and gynecology.
In robot-assisted surgery, the surgeon's movements are translated into precise actions by robotic arms, allowing for smaller incisions and increased precision. The surgeon maintains complete control while benefiting from improved vision and motion stability, facilitating greater dexterity during operations.
The operating table used in conjunction with the surgical system is designed to synchronise movements, allowing for dynamic patient positioning. This capability enhances exposure and access to targeted anatomy, improving efficiency and management during robotic-assisted procedures.
