Successful robotic urological procedures with the Da Vinci system
Robotic procedures for prostate cancer (radical prostatectomy), kidney cancer and bladder cancer are being successfully performed at IASO Thessalias using the Da Vinci robotic surgical system, marking another important step in the advancement of robotic surgery in Central Greece.
The procedures are carried out by Urologists Konstantinos Skriapas and Dimitrios Karagiannis, Director and Deputy Director respectively of the 1st Urology Department of IASO Thessalias. With extensive experience in robotic surgery, the medical team has been applying this technique at IASO Thessalias for more than two and a half years, continuously expanding the hospital’s surgical capabilities.
For patients, robotic urological surgery offers significant benefits. High-definition three-dimensional visualization and exceptional precision allow surgeons to perform delicate procedures within the highly sensitive anatomical area of the prostate. The technology contributes to reduced blood loss, minimal surgical trauma and faster postoperative recovery, enabling patients to return more quickly to their daily activities.
Through ongoing investment in advanced surgical technologies and highly specialized medical teams, IASO Thessalias continues to offer modern, patient-centered treatment options with the highest standards of safety and quality.
