Robotic system removes aneurysm for the first time in the world November 12, 2019 | 04:04 / Interesting information

A group of Canadian doctors performed the world's first brain surgery to eliminate aneurysms using a robot, Xinhua reports. According to doctors, the use of robotic technologies will improve the quality of treatment for patients with aneurysms and strokes.

It is reported that the operation was experienced by a 64-year-old patient with an increased risk of aneurysm rupture. After 2.5 hours of operation, the surgeons of the West Toronto Hospital, using a microcatheter with integrated navigation, passed the brain, having entered the body through a small incision in the groin. Promotion took place under strict x-ray control.

Neuroradiologists have successfully used a robotic system to install a stent to repair an artery, as well as to implant coils that cut off the blood supply to the aneurysm. The patient was discharged from the hospital the day after surgery. The system is also suitable for the treatment of ischemic strokes.
