The standard approach to the removal of the prostate was via an open surgical procedure. The conventional laparoscopic approach is an option, but it is difficult and poses challenges to even the most skilled urologist. The SSi Mantra will enable a larger number of surgeons to convert from using an open surgical technique to a minimally invasive robotic surgical technique.
