Global implementation of robotic surgical systems

Overview

In the Extremadura region of Spain, medical experts have raised concerns regarding the uneven distribution of robotic surgery technology. Dr. Olga Blasco, president of the Extremadura Surgical Society, noted that the region “has only a handful of platforms for the whole community and is at the tail of the country,” with only the university hospitals in Badajoz and Cáceres utilizing Da Vinci and Hugo RAS systems.

Subsequent developments show the continued implementation of specialized robotic systems in Spain and Mexico. In Spain, Hospital Quirónsalud Córdoba has introduced the ROSA (Robotic Orthopedic Surgical Assistant) system, which uses artificial intelligence and 3D navigation for hip and knee replacements. In Mexico, the Mazor X platform was used to perform the country’s first robotic spinal surgery, utilizing 3D image reconstruction to improve accuracy and reduce radiation exposure for medical staff.
