Watch Prof. Dr. R.K. Mishra perform a Robotic-Assisted Sleeve Gastrectomy at World Laparoscopy Hospital, demonstrating the latest advancements in bariatric and metabolic surgery. This procedure is performed using the da Vinci Robotic Surgical System, which offers exceptional precision, three-dimensional high-definition visualization, tremor filtration, and articulated robotic instruments that enhance surgical dexterity in complex procedures.

Sleeve gastrectomy is one of the most effective surgical treatments for obesity and obesity-related metabolic disorders. During the procedure, approximately 75–80% of the stomach is removed, creating a narrow gastric sleeve that reduces food intake while preserving the natural pathway of digestion. In addition to restricting stomach capacity, the operation lowers the production of the hunger hormone ghrelin, helping patients achieve long-term weight loss and improved appetite control.

In this educational surgical video, Dr. R.K. Mishra explains the essential operative steps, including patient positioning, robotic port placement, docking of the robotic system, division of the greater curvature, meticulous gastric mobilization, stapled sleeve creation alongside the bougie, reinforcement techniques, hemostasis, leak testing, specimen retrieval, and safe closure. The video emphasizes adherence to standardized surgical principles, careful tissue handling, and evidence-based operative strategies to maximize patient safety and optimize clinical outcomes.

Robotic-assisted bariatric surgery provides several potential advantages, including improved surgeon ergonomics, enhanced visualization, greater instrument articulation, precise dissection, and superior intracorporeal suturing capabilities. These benefits can be particularly valuable in technically demanding bariatric procedures and in patients with severe obesity.

This operative demonstration is designed for surgeons, bariatric specialists, surgical residents, fellows, and healthcare professionals interested in advanced robotic surgery. It offers valuable insights into modern operative techniques, robotic workflow, perioperative decision-making, and practical tips from an experienced minimally invasive and robotic surgeon.

World Laparoscopy Hospital is internationally recognized for its excellence in laparoscopic, robotic, bariatric, and endoscopic surgery training. Surgeons from over 100 countries have enhanced their surgical skills through its structured fellowship programs, hands-on simulation laboratories, live operative demonstrations, and internationally acclaimed teaching methodology.

If you are passionate about advanced minimally invasive surgery, robotic technology, and bariatric procedures, this comprehensive operative video provides an excellent opportunity to learn from one of the pioneers in the field.
