The Robotic Research and Training Centre trains pediatric surgeons, urologists, gynecologists and other surgeons around the globe in advanced robotic procedures. The World Laparoscopy Hospital, a provider of advanced robotic surgery training, uses a surgeon-led approach for the training program. Here, surgeons are taught how to manage the surgical robot as well how to direct a surgical team during a surgery.

In a minimally invasive surgery, the surgeon will have to use surgical robot to reach extremely difficult surgical targets with dexterity and ease. The difference between open or laparoscopic operations and robotic operations is that the surgeon performing the former types of operations can control things completely by moving tissues aside laproscopically or by grasping the hands of resident during an open operation. The only person who has the total control during these operations is the surgeon at the console. Therefore, it is dangerous to carry out robotic surgery on patients until the surgeon is sufficiently trained.
The five-day Fellowship in Robotic Surgery course will be conducted by Dr. R.K. Mishra. The course is designed to include hands-on cadaveric training and live case study with Dr. Mishra for primary surgeons and their entire operative team. During the Fellowship in Robotic Surgery course, participants will learn robotic suturing, port position and knotting in robotic surgery, troubleshooting and dissection techniques.
Training on da Vinci robotic systems helps surgeons to be more confident when operating in miniature intracavitary spaces. Articulated instrument control and three-dimensional vision are required for this process. The da Vinci robotic systems are involved in procedure development, training of surgical specialists and clinical surgery.
The aim of this robotic surgery hands-on training course, offered by World Laparoscopy Hospital, is to use minimally invasive robotic techniques to treat multidisciplinary surgical disorders.
