Robot Performs Keyhole Surgery: For the first time in the world, a robot has successfully performed the surgery without any human help. According to the researchers, this surgery was better than humans. So far this surgery has been done on 4 animals including pigs.

- Smart tissue autonomous robot from America’s prestigious John Hopkins University did the surgery
- Robots performed this surgery inside animals in a ‘much better’ way than humans
The day is not far in the world when robots
will be able to successfully operate humans without any help. Yes, for the first time in the world, a robot has successfully performed laparoscopic surgery on a pig without human help. The Smart Tissue Autonomous Robot (STAR) of the prestigious John Hopkins University in America has performed this surgery on a pig tissue. Researchers found that robots performed this surgery inside animals in a ‘much better’ way than humans.
American researchers said that this operation is a huge success in the world of robotics, which will lead to a fully automated human operation in the future. Through this operation, the robot connected the two ends of the pig’s intestine. So far this type of operation has been carried out in 4 animals. The research said that the robot did a great job during the operation, which requires a high degree of skill.

Dr Axel Krieger, senior author of the research, said that in this operation, for the first time in the world, the robot did the operation without any human help . Joining the two intestines in the abdomen is the most challenging step and requires the expertise of a doctor. The slightest inattention or movement of the hand will result in stitching elsewhere and this can cause serious problems to the patient.
Dr Axel Krieger wrote that our research shows that we can automate the joining of two ends of the intestines, a very difficult and delicate task of surgery. The robot carried out this operation in four animals and in this operation gave better results than humans. Dr. Axel is Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Johns Hopkins. Experts say that with the introduction of new features in the robot, it will be able to operate in a better way.
