Experts Foresee Increase In Robotic Surgeries

Researchers foresee the future of surgery may involve minimally invasive robots to perform traditional operations.

Transoral robotic surgery for the management of head and neck cancer: A preliminary experience

Genden EM et al. - TORS is a safe, feasible, and minimally invasive alternative to classic open surgery or endoscopic transoral laser surgery in patients with early cancer of the head and neck. With increasing experience, surgical setup as well as operative time will continue to decrease.

Physicians Begin Clinical Study of Incision-Free Obesity Treatment

Newswise - Physicians at The University of Texas Medical School at Houston's Minimally Invasive Surgeons of Texas have enrolled the first patient in Texas in a clinical trial that will examine the safety and effectiveness of an incision-free procedure to treat obesity.

Robodoc: surgeon of the future in theatres now

Researchers work on a new generation of hi-tech gadgets to take minimally invasive robotic surgery to the next level

Robotic nephrectomy for the treatment of benign and malignant disease

Rogers C et al. - Robotic nephrectomy is a safe and feasible option for minimally invasive surgical removal of the kidney for benign and malignant conditions and can be performed through a transperitoneal or retroperitoneal approach.

Robotic Partial Nephrectomy for Renal Hilar Tumors: A Multi-Institutional Analysis

Rogers CG et al. - Robotic partial nephrectomy is a safe and feasible approach for select patients with renal hilar tumors. Robotic assistance may facilitate tumor resection and renal reconstruction for challenging renal hilar tumors, offering a minimally invasive and nephron sparing surgical option for select patients who might otherwise require open surgery or total nephrectomy.

REMINDER: MAKOplasty(R) Robotic Arm Partial Knee Resurfacing -- A New Level of Precision

RED BLUFF, CA, Dec 01 (MARKET WIRE) -- A live surgical webcast of MAKOplasty(R) robotic arm partial knee resurfacing will be presented by Thomas M. Coon, M.D. and St. Elizabeth Community Hospital on December 1st at 3:00 p.m. PST. MAKOplasty(R) is a new, minimally invasive partial knee resurfacing procedure used to treat early to mid-stage knee osteoarthritis that offers a more precise and consistent result that can provide relief. The opportunity for early intervention is important as osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis and the leading cause of disability worldwide, according to the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons. MAKOplasty(R) takes partial knee resurfacing to a new level of precision. It is enabled by the Tactile Guidance System(TM) (TGS(TM)), a surgeon-interactive tactile robotic arm and 3-D visualization syste

Pediatric Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Excision of Urachal Cyst and Bladder Cuff

Yamzon J et al. - Urachal cysts are the most common urachal anomaly in the pediatric population. There is an increasing body of literature documenting successful management of urachal cysts using laparoscopic techniques. The authors describe the techniques used for robot-assisted laparoscopic excision of a urachal cyst and bladder cuff with bladder repair in a female child. This approach is a safe and effective option for the minimally invasive management of pediatric urachal cysts.
