Over the past several decades, there have been great advances in the field of abdominal wall and hernia surgery especially when it comes to robotic-assisted surgery. Unlike laparoscopic surgery , the robotic platform allows for the correction of large hernia defects with specialized techniques that would traditionally only be performed via an ...
Caesarean sections require a large incision of the uterus, which can lead to complications such as blood loss, postoperative pain, anaemia due to continuing blood loss, fever and possible wound infection, breastfeeding issues, difficulty passing urine, future fertility problems, and/or possible complications in future pregnancies including ...

A patient six days after having top surgery. Chest reconstruction surgery candidates desire a flat chest, which may or may not include masculinization. These candidates may include cisgender men with gynecomastia; transgender men who are medically transitioning and have chest dysphoria; and non-binary people with breasts. [15]
The most common of these complications is infection, which occurs at a rate of 10.5% of abdominal hysterectomy, 13% of vaginal hysterectomy and 9% of laparoscopic hysterectomy. [11] There is also a low risk of long-term complications, which can include chronic pain, sexual dysfunction and bowel dysfunction.
The Sensei X robotic catheter is a medical robot designed to enhance a physician’s ability to perform complex operations using a small flexible tube called a catheter.As open surgical procedures that require large incisions have given way to minimally invasive surgeries in which the surgeon gains access to the target organs through small incisions using specialized surgical tools.
Illustration of a hysterotomy. Hysterotomy is major abdominal surgery; it is generally only performed in hospitals and other advanced practice settings.The procedure is nearly identical to a cesarean section, with two main exceptions: the conduction of foeticide guaranteeing compliance with various laws on the subject, and preventing an unintended live birth; and the size of the incision ...
