LIVE Robotic-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy

http://www.or-live.com/Hartfordhospital/2604 More than 40,000 Americans are diagnosed with kidney cancer each year. Physicians can now preserve much of the kidney using a robotic partial nephrectomy technique. In this procedure, surgeons are able to operate and remove cancerous tumors with unmatched precision and control using only a few small incisions. Watch as nationally-renowned urologist Dr. Steven Shichman of Hartford Hospital uses the new da Vinci®Si surgical robot to bring you this procedure in a live Internet broadcast. This webcast is part of a day-long seminar held at Hartford Hospital, focusing on robotic renal surgery. Further information is available at www.hartfordhospital.org/RRS and CMEs are offered for those in attendance. Web cast will be archived at www.harthosp.org.
