Background: Robotic systems have successfully been introduced into other surgical fields in the past. First attempts with different setups are made in the field of microsurgery. The Symani® Surgical System, a flexible platform consisting of two robotic arms, features motion scaling with tremor filtration to address the demands and complexity of microsurgery. Symani’s NanoWrist Instruments are the world’s smallest, wristed surgical instruments, intended to improve a surgeon’s range of motion beyond the capability of the human hand. This combination allows surgeons to scale their hand movements while seamlessly articulating the robotic micro instruments. Purpose: We report on our experience in extremity reconstruction with this novel system. Research Design: The Symani Surgical System® was used for 6 cases of extremity reconstruction. The surgeon controlled the manipulators along with the footswitch while either sitting away from the operating table relying on 3D visualization with an exoscope or sitting at the operating table using a standard microscope. Data Collection: Microsurgical anastomoses were performed in 4 patients (3 end-to-end arterial anastomoses and one end-to-side arterial anastomosis) and nerve grafting was performed in 2 patients. Results: Microvascular anastomoses were slower vs conventional microsurgery, but all anastomoses were patent. Epineural coaptation showed proper fascicle alignment and tissue manipulation could be kept to a minimum. The platform’s motion scaling allows the surgeon to perform precise micro-movements with only minimal tissue manipulation and hard-to-reach anatomy becomes accessible more easily. Conclusions: Robotic microsurgery might gain importance in the nearer future but more data will need to be collected.

The purpose of this study is to develop a near-infrared blood flow measurement algorithm and verify its performance. The gradient value of the measurement point was determined by using LED lights with wavelengths of 760[Formula: see text]nm and 850[Formula: see text]nm. This process involved measuring the gradient value for a significant number of regularly spaced cubic pixels centered around the chosen point. The measured gradient values for each pixel were then averaged to derive the final gradient value. Based on the measurement of the gradation value, when the concentration ratio of blood was altered by 20% between 0% and 100%, the gradation values at 760[Formula: see text]nm and 850[Formula: see text]nm changed significantly (more than [Formula: see text]) in all cases. This study validated the efficacy of a self-developed near-infrared light system for detecting changes in blood flow. The ability to measure alterations in blood flow can be instrumental in predicting peripheral vascular disease (PVD) due to compromised circulatory conditions.
