Robotic Wins Over Prostate Cancer | TopNews Arab Emirates

Stuart-EllisIt seems that the medical industry will soon make a huge success in the treatment for prostate cancer and the patients of the illness will also be able to live their lives once again healthily after their surgeries.

The hopes of the sufferers of this type of cancer have rose with the news of successful removal of prostate from the body of the cancer patient, which the surgeons have removed recently with the help of robotic surgery.

The first Briton, who has got his new life by getting his prostate successfully removed by robotic surgery, is Mr. Stuart Ellis, a resident of Cheadle Hulme. Mr. Ellis?s surgery was ran at Stepping Hill Hospital in Greater Manchester, during which the team of surgeons used a handheld robotic device known as Kymerax to perform their keyhole surgery in order to efficiently deal with conditions including gastrointestinal, urological, and gynecological (the common ones that could rise during the surgery and have to handle immediately).

The surgeons at the Stepping Hill Hospital applause the articulated tip that the robot has been designed with to serve during the surgeries, which according to them can easily outperform human doctors and their efforts.

"It's the fusion of maintaining the feel and touch during an operation with the greater robotic articulation that makes it so special. This robot can do things not physically possibly with a human wrist and gives you the best of both worlds?, Mr. Neil Oakley, the hospital's leading urology surgeon told to BBC.

He added that the flexibility and not so expensive costs of the device are the main attractions of it. Kymerax is relatively very cheap than the other robotic surgeons in the medical industry, which enables the patient to save a big money as compared to the millions of pounds that are being spent over the others.
