The Bilingual NEAA SOCCER AWARDS BANQUET Corner

by Orazio Buttafuoco

LO SAPEVATE CHE … Quello che osserviamo sembra lasciare alquanto a desiderare, ben lontano da quello affascinante che possiamo osservare in un telefilm, ma il robot “Da Vinci” sta collezionando una continua serie di successi che inevitabilmente lo porteranno ad essere sempre piu’ conosciuto dai pazienti, compresi quelli in Italia dove sono state eseguite diverse operazioni con il dispositivo — il ro- bot ‘Da Vinci- da primato mondiale. L’ultimo recente intervento che ha visto l’Italia capofila, e’ stato il prelievo di una parte del fegato da un donatore vivente che all’ISMET di Palermo, per la prima volta al mondo, e’ stato asportato solo con l’intervento del robot ‘Da Vinci’.

DID YOU KNOW THAT … What we may observe leaves much to be desired. For far from the fascinating surgery shown on a tele-film, the “Da Vinci” robot is scoring continuous successes which will make it well known to patients including those in Italy where several surgeries have already been conducted with the robot making a world record. The most recent surgery which has placed Italy in the forefront of the world, has been the removal of a section of the liver from a living do- nor, at the ISMET (Mediterranean Institute of Transplan- tations) in Palermo for the first time in the world, by the ‘Da Vinci’ robot. Marco Spada, chief of abdominal surgery and transplants at the Institute, recently stated: “The ever increasing massive use of robotics is the natural evolu- tion of surgical techniques, it makes it possible to lower the trauma due to the surgery with shorter recovery for (Photos by Angela Cornacchio) the patient and a better outcome.
