The instrumentation was created by medical device provider Teleflex. The Teleflex system allowed Dr. Cervone to perform the procedure without inserting a trocar, making the operation minimally invasive and leaving the patient with an almost unnoticeable scar the size of a pencil tip.
“Using Percuvance [the Teleflex system] allowed me to operate with no additional training yet provided less trauma and a faster recovery time for my patient,” said Dr. Cervone. “I would use Percuvance again as it was a smooth transition for me and the patient benefited from the procedure as well.”
