We are proud to announce a state-of-the-art surgical breakthrough at ACOSSM!   Dr. Stacey Berner has become the first surgeon in the   United States to perform successful robot-assisted hand surgery.  Dr. Berner used the daVinci robot to repair nerve damage in a patient’s   hand.  By using robotics, Dr. Berner was able to more closely control every aspect of the surgery, and offer a minimally invasive option   for a very complex surgical procedure.  This will hopefully result in less pain, a shorter hospital stay and a faster return to normal activity.  To view the article in the Baltimore Sun, use this link.
