Urological
surgery robot is a new system that creates use of robots in urology surgeries.
These robots are designed to recover the procedure guidance, workflows, and
peer collaboration through surgical procedures. They work with significantly
high efficiency and reduce time & complications of surgeries. Urological
conditions affect the male reproductive organs or problems with the female or male
urinary tract. These can usually have a problem in the bladder, urethra, kidney
and prostate. Some procedures such as robotic cystectomy, robotic prostatectomy
and robotic pyeloplasty are used in this surgery.
According to
study, “Global Urological Surgery Robots
Market 2016-2025 by Application, Product, Equipment and Region” some of the major companies
that are currently working in the global urological surgery robots market are AVRA
Surgical Robotics, Inc., Medrobotics Corporation, MAKO Surgical Corp., SafeStitch
Medical Inc., Dornier MedTech, Stryker, Blue Belt Technologies Ltd., Lumenis, Intuitive
Surgical, Olympus, NovaTract Surgical, Inc., Boston Scientific, Medtronic Inc.,
Cook Medical, Titan Medical, Simbionix USA Corp., HealthTronics, Richard Wolf, Karl
Storz, TransEnterix, Inc.
Based on the
types of diseases, the global urological surgery robot market is segmented into
prostate cancer, urinary incontinence, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH),
urinary stones and other urological conditions. BPHis treated with laser
therapy, transurethral needle ablation (TUNA), transurethral microwave
thermotherapy (TUMT) as compared to transurethral resection of the prostate
(TURP). Urinary stones are being controlled by less invasive cure options such
as ureteroscopy and extra corporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) as compared
to percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) & open surgery. Based on product,
market can be breakdown into many endoscopes for instance ureteroscopes & nephroscopes,
cystoscopes, robotic surgical systems, lithotripters, laser systems,
brachytherapy systems, urodynamic systems, high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU)
systems and urology consumables.
Based on
technology, market is categorized into EndoAssist, Automated Endoscopic System
for Optimal Positioning (AESOP), the da Vinci Surgical System, ZEUS, Patient‐side cart, console and image-processing or insufficient
stack. Additionally, based on application, market is defined as robotic partial
nephrectomy, roboticureteral reimplantation, robotic sacrospinous suspension, robotic
pyeloplasty (urinary reconstruction surgery), robotic retroperitoneal lymph
node dissection, robotic cystectomy, robotic vesicovaginal fistula repair, robotic
prostatectomy and robotic nephroureterectomy.
Some of the major
associated benefits are reduced fatigue, no fulcrum effect, ergonomic
positioning, enhanced degrees of freedom, 3-D visualization, elimination of
tremor and motion scaling. Furthermore, some of the other major drawbacks
include no tactile feedback, set-up times lengthy, expensive capital &
running costs and reduced trainee experience.
The global
urological surgery robots are primarily driven by the growing focus on MI
surgeries. Some of the other driving factors are growth in the volume of
prostatectomies, limitations in conventional surgeries, rising focus on
emerging economies and increasing adoption of robotic surgeries. Apart from the
driving factors the other major benefits include challenges associated are low
penetration rates, shortage of skilled surgeons, availability of the alternative
treatments for urology conditions, high equipment & maintenance costs and
lack of clinical evidence affecting adoption. In addition, some of the other trends
included in the adoption of micro & nano robots are increase in research
& development (R & D) activities with increasing vendor focus on expansion
of low cost robotic surgical systems.
Recently, robot assisted
urological interventions have strained new prospects for safe & effective
cure for urological diseases. Moreover, over the forecast period global
urological surgery robots market to reach at US$3.33 billion, by 2025.
