What comes after robotic surgery? Incisionless surgery.

In the latest SRS podcast episode, Sue O'Sullivan sits down with Dr. Michael McDonald, urologist at AdventHealth, to explore the rise of histotripsy — a technique that uses pulsed ultrasound energy to destroy soft tissue without heat, radiation, or a single incision.

Dr. McDonald breaks down:

• How histotripsy works and why it represents the next major step in surgical evolution
• Current FDA approvals and clinical trials for liver, kidney, and pancreatic conditions
• The launch of the Society of Incisionless Surgery (SIS) and its mission to advance multi-specialty collaboration and AI-driven imaging

If you're following the future of surgery, this one is worth your time.

Big news in robotic surgery.

Medtronic has announced a $700 million strategic partnership with Cornerstone Robotics, securing international distribution rights for the Sentire Surgical System to complement its existing Hugo RAS platform.

The move signals a clear portfolio strategy: give hospitals and surgeons more choices, and accelerate access to minimally invasive care in underserved markets worldwide.

For the robotic surgery community, this is worth paying attention to.

20,000 surgeries. One surgeon. A legacy that's saving lives.

The Society of Robotic Surgery and International Prostate Cancer Foundation held an awards gala in honor of Dr. Vipul Patel's 20,000th prostate cancer surgery.

The room was filled with surgeons and healthcare leaders from around the world, all united by the same mission: delivering lifesaving care and advancing prostate cancer awareness, screening, and early detection.

Moments like this remind us why this work matters.

Congratulations to Dr. Patel on this extraordinary milestone!

The Society of Robotic Surgery congratulates Johnson & Johnson on the news that the FDA has granted the company authorization for OTTAVA, the company’s robotic surgical system and the world’s first soft-tissue robotic platform.

This approval, which has been years in the making, is focused on multiple general surgery procedures in the upper abdomen.

The approval allows Johnson & Johnson to enter the fast-growing soft-tissue robotic surgery market.

All of us at SRS look forward to how this advancement, along with so many others in our industry, will impact the world.

SRS executive director Dr. Vipul Patel spoke with Rocco De Bernardis, global president of OTTAVA at Johnson & Johnson, about this incredible achievement during today’s kick-off of the Society of Robotic Surgery’s Annual Meeting held this year in Hollywood, Florida.
