The surgery, led by Dr. François Dagbert, Colorectal Surgeon, and Dr. David Roberge, Radiation Oncologist at CHUM, combined the exceptional precision of the Da Vinci robot with the innovative capabilities of the Mobetron to treat a challenging case of locally advanced colorectal cancer. This state-of-the-art approach not only improved the accuracy and safety of the surgery but also ensured that radiation was delivered directly to the edge of the tumor site, enhancing the chances of eliminating residual cancer cells and minimizing the risk of recurrence.
"We are incredibly proud of this innovative collaboration between the surgical and radiation therapy teams, which will not only help us provide cutting-edge care for our patients but also set new standards in how we approach complex cancer surgeries", said Dr. Dagbert, Colorectal Surgeon at CHUM. "The integration of robotic precision and intraoperative radiation therapy has enabled us to achieve high-level precision and safety, reducing the invasiveness of complex surgical procedures and supporting quicker post-operative recovery”, added Dr. Roberge, Radiation Oncologist at CHUM. “CHUM has been an exceptional partner for us”, said Kevin Landis, CEO of IntraOp Medical Corporation. “Their ability to apply advanced tools in innovative ways is inspiring.”
