Disruptive Innovation “ Breakthrough” Technologies are Born Ugly
The Beginning
The Goal Enable surgeons to perform complex surgery through tiny incisions with greater precision than is possible with their natural hands. Wristed instruments the size of a small pencil Natural “intuitive” instrument movement Scaled hand motion Tremor elimination Magnified 3-D Vision

Clinical Benefits of  da Vinci ®  Surgery  Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery Avoids a Sternotomy  Findings were as follows : The daVinci “mini-CABG”hybrid  patients had  99% patency at one year vs. 80%  with open surgery  3 to 7 fewer days  in the hospital  85% reduction in MACCE  (major adverse cardiac or cerebrovascular event) one year post surgery 83% reduction  in intubation time No net increase in cost and a cost savings for patients with major co-morbidities University of Maryland  Coronary Artery Bypass Study 100 off-pump consecutive daVinci “mini-CABG” hybrid patients compared to matched group of 100 sternotomy CABG patients
Clinical Benefits of  da Vinci ®  Surgery - ENT Mayo Clinic: Transoral Robotic Surgery Is Safe and Effective in Treating Some Throat Cancer The average hospital stay was  2.3 days, as compared with 7 to 10 days for  traditional surgery  The  removal of feeding tubes  in patients undergoing transoral robotic surgery occurred an  average of 7 to 10 days after surgery, compared with 2 to 3 months  for traditional surgery “ The results of this research were even more positive than we expected.  We found great advantages to using transoral robotic surgery for tonsil and base of tongue cancers .”  - Eric Moore M.D . “ There were no major complications, no tumor recurrence and, when compared to traditional surgeries, patients began swallowing on their own sooner and left the hospital sooner.”
