The world's most advanced fourth-generation da Vinci surgical robot in Shiyan was officially launched in Taihe Hospital on Nov 29th, 2019, and a 49-year-old patient with calculous cholecystitis and immune thrombocytopenic purpura became the “first mover”. The robot has the advantages of precise, flexible, minimally invasive and naked-eye 3D, and its introduction marks the beginning of robot-assisted surgery in Shiyan.
