The aim of this study is to evaluate standard urological surgeries using the 270Surgical system vs same procedures using the standard scope
The tremendous popularity of the laparoscopic surgeries is balanced with its tradeoffs - the needs for an excellent intracavitary visualization along with a surgeon skill set capable of performing these, often more technically challenging procedures. Image quality has improved, but there are still various restrictions to images captured by the lens at the tip of a long tubular laparoscope. 270Surgical developed a 270 degree angle scope to overcome these unmet needs and improve the image quantity and extent during laparoscopy. The study will compare the use of the 270Surgical system (The "SurroundScope") to standard laparoscope during partial nephrectomy and nephrectomy urological surgeries;
