The revolutionary events in the European surgery - the first time in its history the robot surgeon performed the kidney transplant from mother to daughter.
This action saved the life of 37-year-old Juliana Kampanani, who suffered from chronic renal failure for many years. The disease progressed so that Julian could not do without a transplant. And the donor was her mother, 57-year-old Manuela Staderini.
The operation took place at the University Hospital, located in the Italian city of Pisa, and led her robot surgeon on behalf of the "Da Vinci". He made a neat incision width of three millimeters and a length of 5 cm on the body of his daughter, and then the exact same cut on the mother's abdomen, kidney separated, remove it and successfully transplanted to the new owner.
45-year-old Dr. Ugo Boggi, head of the Department of General Surgery and Transplantation at the University Hospital, said that the operation was carried out with amazing precision. Naturally, scalpel in hand, the robot did not flinch once. "Everything was just wonderful, a single mistake - says Dr. Boggy. - The operation lasted two hours and immediately after transplantation, we have saved the patient from having to live on dialysis."
Dr. Boggy stresses that this operation will be a big step forward in the development of minimally invasive surgery with robots, especially Transplantation Where extremely important during the operation does not cause any, even the smallest injuries transplanted organs.
May 25 Dr. Boggy used robot surgeon for transplantation of the liver, and from mother to daughter. But this time, the first time in European medicine robot has fully transplantation - from start to finish.
