Robot Surgeon Performs a Successful Laparoscopic Surgery
Science Robotics. ADVERTISEMENT “Our findings show that we can automate one of the most intricate and delicate tasks in surgery: the reconnection of two ends of an intestine. The STAR performed the procedure in four animals, and it produced significantly better results than humans performing the same procedure,” said senior author Axel Krieger, an assistant professor of mechanical engineering at Johns Hopkins’ Whiting School of Engineering.The robot performed a successful laparoscopic surgery known as intestinal anastomosis.
