Robot Success: Microsurgery Robots First Procedure

Hospital in The Netherlands uses new microsurgery robot


First successful procedure completed on Lymphedema patient


Microscopic surgery at much more precise levels is now possible thanks to a new microsurgery robot introduced in The Netherlands. The surgeon assist robot allows surgeons to suture at the tiniest of levels by giving them a steadier hand during surgical procedures.

The device, with powerful visual aid, can convert incremental movements of the surgeon's hands, scaling them down from centimeters to fractions of millimeters, creating better precision and improving surgical finesse.Source

The successful procedure sutured a lymphatic vessel on a patient suffering from Lymphedema. The results were less pain and quicker healing time for the patient. The device is from MicroSure Robotics
