Innovations
To allow abdominal surgeries, abdominal incisions need to be performed in the abdomen (belly) wall. These cause injury to internal tissues, creation of hernias in the abdomen wall and cosmetic impairment. Existing laparoscopic and robotic surgeries allow performing intra-abdominal surgeries also require some incisions in the abdominal wall, which are small but which also have negative impacts. Moreover, the existing surgical robots are very limited in the complexity of actions they allow, being both single-jointed and physically very large. An Israeli start-up company called Memic, for which Prof. Neuman is the senior medical advisor, developed a very small advanced multi-jointed mini-robot which enables a hidden insertion into the abdomen, with no visible incisions, for the performance of complex surgical procedures. The sophisticated robot will soon be available for surgeons in the USA, Europe and Israel. Dozens of surgeries were already performed in Europe and in Israel, and very high safety and efficacy were demonstrated.
Prolapse of pelvic organs originates from tissues’ weakness, therefore a reconstruction surgery should include a strengthening sling to prevent recurrent prolapse. Mesh implants may cause complications, therefore Prof. Neuman developed with the team of an Israeli start-up company (FEMSelect)a medical device called EnPlace, which enables performing a surgical procedure for reconstruction of prolapse without the need for a mesh and without the need for a deep surgery. The procedure is performed under anesthesia, lasts about 20 minutes and the patient is discharged home within several hours. The device is available for surgeons in the USA, in Europe and in Israel. Experience of hundreds of surgeries in Israel, USA and Germany has proven very high safety and efficacy.
