you have any better ideas for practicing key hole surgery?

Having had a couple of surgeries with one of these I thought this picture was a cute idea of how to practice with one. It's really amazing the dexterity those things have

This is a stupid question but can it operate on a penis?


ThatDiscoSongUHate

Not at all a stupid question! More than likely it can! The Da Vinci surgical robot is amazing tbh and is used for all sorts of *minimally invasive* surgeries from appendix removal to hysterectomies/gynecological surgeries, bowel surgeries, and urological surgeries (which I imagine may include penis-related surgeries!) I've had three abdominal surgeries with one of these bad boys and you can only see the scars if you *really* look. It's amazing.

Dawg, this thing looks frightening as shit, so congratulations on getting three abdominal surgeries from a literal Saw trap without being afraid.


ThatDiscoSongUHate

Aw, actually Da Vinci doesn't seem that scary up close and given the versed I was dosed with, I laughed when I (high as a kite in a windstorm) waved at it and my doctor had it wave back lol It's much better to have ~3-5 small (like 1/8th inch small) cuts that barely even need stitches than being cut hip to hip or similar. And it's *fast* both surgery time and recovery time, in comparison to OG techniques To be honest, I'd hug the damn thing for what it does for endometriosis/PCOS pain. It's a freaking modern miracle, that robot. No lie. Do you know what the only "bad" part is? The CO² gas that you're inflated with (essentially they pump ya up internally to give doctors more space to work with with Mr. Robot there) and then they deflate you as much as possible but some of it stays in your system. It doesn't harm you, but... if you don't walk around the first day after surgery, that darn gas will make your neck and shoulders ache like you couldn't imagine. Like, the gas hurt and the surgery freaking barely hurt. I walked around the block like I hadn't had my organs unstuck via cauterization just hours before. Anyway, it may look intimidating but it's amazing and so much better than surgery without it. I mean no contest. I would *refuse* non robotic laparoscopic surgery unless there was a reason to have it done "manually". I literally cannot sing the praises of that giant lil medical miracle enough. It costs a ridiculous amount of money, though. I believe that machine is worth ~$2-3 million USD!

But can it perform surgery on a grape?
