Magnetic-assisted robotic surgery: initial case series of reduced-port robotic prostatectomy
Introduction Robotic urologic surgery demonstrates advantages of decreased blood loss and improved post-operative recovery compared to open surgery. Tissue retraction is a complicated process achieved with patient positioning and the use of additional ports and instrumentation. Magnetic actuation of laparoscopic surgical equipment has demonstrated safety and efficacy. The Levita™ Magnetic Surgical System, a novel magnetic […]
