Robotic Surgery
Dr. Witt is one of the world’s most experienced urologists in the field of robotic surgery. With more than 10,000 robot-assisted operations in total and more than 8,000 prostatectomies, Dr. Witt has the optimum experience to make optimal use of the outstanding tool of the da Vinci surgical robot.
The robot is an excellent tool for complex operations in the abdominal cavity, e.g. on the kidney, ureter and prostate.
In the surgical treatment of prostate cancer, the removal of the prostate (prostatectomy), the use of robots is now standard. Even though robots can now be found in many clinics in Germany, the experience of the surgeon and the team in handling the highly specialized device is decisive for the result. It’s like a high-quality grand piano: only an experienced and practiced pianist can use the instrument in a way that inspires.
Robot-assisted procedures are minimally invasive and much gentler than open surgery. You can find out more about robotic surgery here (in german).
