In a series of firsts for Jiangsu Province, Nanjing Children's Hospital successfully completed three advanced pediatric procedures using the SHURUI^® single-port robotic system: pyeloplasty, ovarian cystectomy, and ureteral reimplantation in complex kidney anomalies.

Led by Prof. Yunfei Guo, the team used SHURUI^®’s snake-like instruments through a single 2 cm umbilical incision to navigate delicate anatomy with precision and minimal trauma. In all cases, intraoperative bleeding was under 10 ml, and organ function was preserved.

With 3D magnified vision and tremor-free 360° articulation, the system enables fine dissection and reconstruction in tight pediatric spaces—greatly reducing the risk of postoperative complications and supporting faster, more complete recovery.

As of February 2025, over 10 such procedures have been completed, marking a new era of precision pediatric surgery in China. Nanjing Children’s Hospital is committed to expanding the clinical reach of robotic innovation to deliver safer, faster recovery to young patients.
