What is robot-assisted sleeve gastrectomy (rSG)?
Slimming surgery with Sleeve gastrectomy is a modern method in which 60-80% of the stomach is removed. The remaining part is shaped into a banana-shaped "sleeve", which makes you feel less hungry, eat less and achieve permanent weight reduction, without compromising the body's ability to absorb nutrients.
Robot-assisted technique makes the procedure more precise than traditional laparoscopy. The surgeon controls the entire procedure from a console, and advanced technology translates hand and finger movements into micro-movements in the instruments.
- It is important to emphasize that it is not a robot operating on you. The entire procedure is managed by an experienced surgeon – the technology only gives us even greater precision and control, explains Dr. Jan Roland Lambrecht, specialist gastrosurgeon at CMedical.
Advantages of robot-assisted surgery
- Less pain and shorter recovery time
- Reduced blood loss and fewer complications
- Better cosmetic result through small incisions
- Faster return to everyday life - many return home the day after the operation
- Shorter sick leave – often just two weeks
After one year, patients who undergo sleeve gastrectomy can expect a weight loss of 20-25% of total body weight as well as lasting improvement in health-related quality of life.
- Many patients find that this is the start of a new life - with more energy, better health and an everyday life where weight is no longer a barrier, says Dr. Andreas Edenberg, specialist in gastroenterological surgery.
