Robotic surgery implementation in Turkish university medical

Overview

Turkish university hospitals are expanding access to advanced robotic surgery technologies.

Selçuk University Faculty of Medicine Hospital in Konya has integrated two separate robotic surgery systems, having performed over 300 successful procedures since the first system was introduced 1.5 years ago. The hospital provides these services across multiple specialties, including urology and general surgery, without charging patients additional fees to ensure equality of opportunity in healthcare.

Following this trend, Harran University Hospital in Şanlıurfa has introduced a new robotic surgery system to enhance regional capabilities. The technology is intended to assist in treating urological conditions such as prostate, kidney, and bladder cancers, offering clinical advantages like smaller incisions and faster recovery times.
