Da Vinci 5 delivered to HTP front door. First cases tomorrow. @HMHNewJersey @HUMCUrology leading the way! This will change the way we do surgery in many ways. One I am excited for is the way we teach surgery - case insights. @IntuitiveSurg
- Completed final review of our book that 2 years to complete. Thank you in advance to all the authors and the team at springer. 28 chapters; 400 pages; 38 videos and countless of contributors. To think it all started over a few beers @md_eun @lee_c_zhao and chester KOh
- 26 yo fem wheel chair bound spina bifida. Difficulty CIC and BL hydro. My ped urologist suggested ileo vesicostomy. Youtube provided video. Here is our summary video for those considering. As a visual person I learn a lot from video and even more live surgery. Thx @nathanch3ng
00:00 - Dr. Georg Schoen, Chief Physician of Robotic Urosurgery at the Urological Clinic at Munich Planegg in Germany, visited @HUMCUrology and observed 6 SP cases. He also shared his technique with pyeloplasty reconstruction. I tried it, liked it, and adopted it. Sharing for all.
00:00 - What the what! RRP being done by surgeon Xu Zhang in Rome with patient in Beijing China. Latency is 125 Ms. 5G telecommunication. Looks as if surgeon is in the room. The future is now! Pandora box has now been opened. Note surgeon and console in China as a backup.
