Surgeons in Scotland and Florida performed the first transatlantic robotic stroke surgery using a Lithuanian system, simulating real-time treatment 4,000 miles apart.
Surgeons in Dundee and Jacksonville performed the world’s first transatlantic robotic stroke surgery, using a Lithuanian-made system to conduct a full mechanical thrombectomy on cadavers 4,000 miles apart.
The procedure, completed with real-time control and a 120-millisecond delay, simulated human blood flow and replicated all steps of a standard thrombectomy.
The breakthrough, supported by Nvidia and Ericsson, could expand access to life-saving stroke care, especially in rural or underserved areas where timely treatment is currently limited.
The University of Dundee plans clinical trials next year, aiming to overcome geographic barriers and surgeon shortages.
Experts say the technology could significantly improve outcomes, as every six-minute delay reduces recovery chances by 1%.
Cirujanos en Escocia y Florida realizaron la primera cirugía transatlántica robótica de ictus usando un sistema lituano, simulando un tratamiento en tiempo real a 4.000 millas de distancia.
