Robotic assisted technology is the latest breakthrough in neurosurgery. Robotic Surgery Assistance or ROSA as it is commonly called, is now being used at the University clinic in Frankfurt, Germany. The advantages of using robotic surgery is minimally invasive, less pain, small incisions, reduced blood loss, quick recovery ...

Cervical cancer is one of the most common malignant diseases of women. This is the most common tumor among women of reproductive age. When one has cancer of the cervix, metastases appear early and it can cause a large number of negative outcomes. If it is the second stage of the pathology, there is a great possibility for one's death.

Mitral valve disease is a lesion of the bicuspid valve and subvalvular structures, leading to impaired hemodynamics and the development of heart failure. Asymptomatic valvular heart disease is present in 2.5% of the population, increasing to 13% with age. In the absence of competent treatment, mitral valve dysfunction significantly reduces the quality and expectancy of life.

Lung cancer remains one of the most wide spread malignant oncologic illnesses. Lung cancer is a deadly disease and its poorly responds to treatment. The main problem is that it ’is extremely hard to recognize lung cancer at the early stages. Symptoms appear quite late. Therefore, lung cancer is diagnosed usually only on at stage 3 or 4 when radical treatment is impossible.

Cell therapy is one of the rapidly developing and novel methods for the treatment of diverse diseases. It is based on the use of artificially collected pluripotent cells or products of their cultivation. Until recently, cell therapy was not widespread in the clinical practice. The reason was the high cost of the procedure itself and lack of information about its long-term results.

Brain tumors and spinal cord tumors are included in the number of the most dangerous oncologic illnesses. Their surgical treatment is often difficult because of the possibility to damage functional nerve tissue followed by the formation of a stable neurological deficit. Compared to the neoplasms of the brain, tumors of the spinal...

Despite current advances in joint replacement and the availability of reliable prostheses, orthopedic specialists always prefer sparing a patient’s joint. Thus, restoration of the joint structures becomes the highest-priority task. Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of cellular therapies, i.e. stem cell therapy, in this area.
