Dr. Juan José Torrent, the first oncological surgeon accredited in Spain to operate with the Da Vinci 5
Last week, Dr. Juan José Torrent completed the official training in London for the use of the Da Vinci 5 robotic system, becoming the first gynecological oncology surgeon accredited in Spain to operate it.
The Da Vinci 5 is the latest generation in minimally invasive robotic surgery and represents a significant advance in the treatment of gynecological tumors. It features more than 150 improvements over previous versions, with advances in imaging, ergonomics and precision.
Among its most notable innovations is force feedback, which allows the surgeon to sense tissue resistance from the console, achieving finer control during the procedure. It also makes it possible to review the previous steps of the surgery in real time to confirm or correct the surgical plane.
For patients, this translates into more precise procedures on delicate tissues, with small incisions, less postoperative pain and a faster recovery.
