TransEnterix has submitted a 510(k) for additional Senhance System instruments, including 3mm diameter instruments. TransEnterix says it is the first company to seek FDA clearance for robotically-driven 3 mm instruments for abdominal surgery in the U.S. Their clearance would allow the Senhance to be used for “scarless” microlaparoscopic surgeries. In the U.S., Senhance is cleared for laparoscopic colorectal, gynecologic, inguinal hernia and cholecystectomy surgery.
