Avatera has received the CE Mark for its Avatera system, a robotic device used to perform minimally invasive laparoscopy procedures.

The device consists of two components: a surgical robot with four arms used to control an endoscope and Avatera instruments, and a control unit containing manual input devices, foot switches and an eyepiece.

The system employs a single-use concept for instruments and sterile accessories, removing the risk of cross-contamination.
