Abstract
BackgroundOver the past 20 years, surgeons involved in soft tissue minimally invasive surgery have experienced the pros and cons of both conventional and tele-robotic laparoscopic approaches. The Maestro System, developed by Moon Surgical (Paris, France) aims to overcome the challenges inherent to both approaches thanks to a new concept that augments the surgeon’s performance at the bedside during a laparoscopic procedure.MethodsThe current study aims to present the first human experience with laparoscopic cholecystectomy with the Maestro system on 10 patients.ResultsAll ten procedures were completed successfully. No significant complications related to the use of the Maestro system werenoted.ConclusionOur preliminary observations appear to support the benefits of the Maestro system in non-emergent laparoscopic cholecystectomies. It goes without saying that further research is necessary to demonstrate the safety of this approach in other procedures.
