Mazor Robotics Congratulates Baptist Medical Center Jacksonville on Surpassing 700 Procedures with Renaissance(R) Guidance Sy...
28 April 2016 - 10:05PM
Last week, Neurosurgeon Andrew Cannestra, MD, PhD, performed
Baptist Medical Center's 700th case with the Mazor Robotics
Renaissance® Guidance System. The team at Baptist Medical Center
Jacksonville has two Renaissance systems and uses the technology to
assist in both spine and brain procedures. Dr. Cannestra uses the
system for spine procedures, along with fellow neurosurgeons at
Lyerly Neurosurgery/Baptist Health, Paulo Monteiro, MD; Michael
Petr, MD, PhD; Javier Garcia-Bengochea, MD, and Bradley Wallace,
MD, PhD. Dr. Wallace also uses the Renaissance system's brain
module to assist in the planning and execution of electrode
placement trajectories for cranial procedures. See how it works.
"The robotic system allows precise placement of hardware,
enabling our patients to have better and more consistent outcomes,"
said Dr. Cannestra, director of the robotic spine surgery program
at Baptist. "Seven hundred cases is a landmark in spinal robotic
care and should be recognized as providing the best possible
surgical option for spinal fusion." Watch this story of how he
helped patient Bonnie Wilson lead a normal life again with
Renaissance technology. Mazor Robotics Inc. CEO Christopher
Prentice, added, "We are honored as a company to have this
prestigious team of surgeons using Renaissance on a near daily
basis, and it is of great benefit being close to our Central
Florida headquarters. Baptist Medical Center Jacksonville
continues to be at the forefront of neurosurgical and spine
care and we look forward to celebrating
many more milestones together." Baptist Health is
