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 in Malaysia.
Powered by the 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 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 4,000 da Vinci robotic surgical systems have been installed worldwide and more than 4 million surgeries were done robotically in the field of urology, gynaecology, cardiac thoracic, general surgery and pediatric surgery. The high adoption of this technology is due to its proven clinical benefits to patients and ease of use.
Since the robotic assisted surgery is done with small incisions, potential benefits include:
The da Vinci 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.
Provide surgeons with natural dexterity and range of movement far greater than the human hand
3-dimensional, enhanced high definition vision with 10 times magnification – offering surgeons an immersive view of the operation field
The surgeon’s hand movements are scaled, filtered and seamlessly translated into robotic arms and instruments
Sunway Medical Centre has more than 10 surgeons with accreditation to perform robotic assisted surgeries in the following disciplines:
(Prostate, Kidney & Urology
reconstructive surgery)
(Uterus & fibroid removal surgery)
(Colon and rectal surgery)
(liver, pancreas, gall bladder and hernia surgery)
Prostate cancer occurs in the prostate gland when abnormal cells develop in the prostate. It is one of the more common cancers globally and usually affects men aged 50 and above. Prostate cancer is a heterogeneous group of cancers consisting of mostly slow growing cancer cells and often has no early symptoms.
Many benign (non-cancerous) conditions can affect a woman’s reproductive system, which includes the uterus, vagina, ovaries and Fallopian tubes but mostly affect the uterus (the hollow, muscular organ that holds a baby as it grows inside a pregnant woman).
A hysterectomy is the surgery to remove your uterus and is used to treat common benign conditions such as:
