RE: Robotic Surgery: towards the "perfection"

in #steemstem6 years ago

The new DaVinci single port looks like it was taken from a sci-fi movie, the control is unbelievable, it will ease a lot of complicated operations, simply wonderful! Still, even with robotic surgery, I don't think intraperitoneal meshes are a good idea ! The long-term complications such as adhesion or fistulation are too frequent , people with low life expectancy are best suited for this procedure but that's just my humble opinion, you're the expert here ! Amazing article by the way Dr !

Thanks a lot! Intraperitoneal mesh are nowdays made in a special materials that should avoid intestinal fistula, still there is a small chance it could happen. Laparoscopic is just more safe than open surgery that's why a lot of surgeons use that meshes. Robotic approach will change everything!

I see, that sounds promising ! I like discovering the latest technology, you should do it more often :)
