The Acibadem Sistina Clinical Hospital has marked a significant milestone by successfully conducting its inaugural operation utilizing the MedBot Toumai® robotic system. This procedure signals the introduction of advanced, highly precise, and minimally invasive surgical techniques to the hospital, the surrounding area, and the wider region. The initial case involved a 57-year-old patient who underwent a complex procedure combining a robot-assisted radical prostatectomy with a robot-assisted laparoscopic lymphadenectomy for the treatment of prostate cancer.
The deployment of the advanced robot system allowed the surgical team to perform the operation with exceptional accuracy and superior control throughout every phase of the intervention. The urology team overseeing the procedure was led by Prof. Dr.
Sotir Stavridis, a specialist in the field. The success of the operation was attributable to the coordinated efforts of a multidisciplinary team, including urologists, anesthesiologists, nurses, medical technicians, and dedicated hospital support staff. The integration of this sophisticated technology represents a major advancement in patient care at the hospital.
The assisted nature of the surgery highlights the precision achievable through robotic assistance, setting a new standard for complex urological interventions. This successful first use establishes the hospital as a center equipped to provide state-of-the-art, minimally invasive surgical care.
