The da Vinci Surgical System is an advanced robotic platform (hereafter referred to as the da Vinci robot) designed with the concept of performing complex surgical procedures through the use of a minimally invasive approach. Since the introduction of the da Vinci robot in our hospital, we have performed more than 20 surgeries such as thymectomy, alveolar ligation, diaphragmatic hernia repair, esophageal hiatal hernia repair, and lobectomy, all of which have resulted in good recovery. Because of the limited introduction of this equipment in China now, the majority of patients do not understand its structure and working principle, so its main equipment and operating principle are briefly described as follows: Simply put, the da Vinci robot is the advanced lumpectomy system. You may be familiar with the popular minimally invasive treatments such as thoracoscopy, laparoscopy, and gynecological lumpectomy, etc. The da Vinci robot also requires a robotic arm to pass through the chest and abdominal wall when performing surgical operations. The da Vinci robot consists of three parts: the surgeon’s console; the patient’s flat cart; and the camera system flat cart. I. Surgeon’s Console This part is the control center of the da Vinci robot. The robot operator sits outside the sterile area and uses his hands or feet to control the robot and a 3D endoscope. It includes: 1. Main controller: Provides the surgeon with the means to control the instruments and endoscope inside the patient. By bringing the index finger and thumb together or apart, the operator can initiate and control the instruments to do the same action. 2, stereo viewer: provides the operator with a graphic interface that can integrate left/right video channels to give continuous three-dimensional images. 3.Configuration panel: Through the configuration panel adjustment, it can provide the operator with more detailed images that meet the requirements. 4. Foot switch: capable of adjusting the focus, switching the robotic arm and providing an electric knife switch II. Patient flat carriage This part is the operating part of the da Vinci robot, providing support for the robotic arm and the endoscopic arm, which is in direct contact with the patient and needs to be sterile. It is equipped with a bipolar flat clamp with double joints, which can move freely within 360°+180°. Third, the camera system flat carriage: This part contains the image processing system and is operated by a person who does not need to be in a sterile area during the procedure. Through sophisticated design, the da Vinci robot is able to replace the human hand to perform various movements in the small space of the human body without tremors and safer operation.
