ABOUT
Following two successful exits, Founder and CEO Avi Levy spent almost two years in surgery rooms trying to identify the next big problem to solve. In the past six years, 270Surgical has done just that. Tackling head-on the three major problems of MIS – Blind Spots due to limited visibility, inefficiencies due to Fog and Surgical Smoke, and long surgeon training.

Testimonials
“It will be the new standard-of-care, and will probably be enforced by the administration in the future because this is going to be more safe.
I have no question about it.”
Dr. Santiago HorganChief of MIS surgery UCSD
Director, Center for the Future of Surgery
“We found something that was rather astounding. Throughout the 10 complex cases, we never, not once, had to take out the camera from the body throughout the case. That’s almost impossible in laparoscopic surgery.”
Dr. Paul SeversonCo-Director, Minnesota Institute
for Minimally Invasive Surgery
“The 270 degrees allows you to keep the wide field of view that is usually missing in laparoscopy.
It will improve efficiency and patient safety –
what can be more important than that?!”
Dr. Gideon Sroka Head of laparoscopic unit
Bnai Zion Medical Center
“The SurroundScope is a true game-changer.
It allows you to operate faster and more efficiently as it gives you the most accurate imitation of an ‘open sky’ surgical field”.
Dr. Salvador Pascual Sánchez-GijónHead of surgery services of Puerto Santa Maria Hospital
“Now we have the opportunity to gain more information by seeing more of the body. It’s remarkable!”
Dr. Howard MccollisterCo-Director, Minnesota Institute for Minimally Invasive Surgery
“You are able to see a FoV and place trocars easily without moving the camera and you are seeing beyond where you would see an adhesion which is just fantastic because if you have a thick adhesion being able to see if there is bowel on the other side is invaluable. I just cant say enough how having the big field of view really helps you.”
Dr. Robert JohnsonMD FACS
“The wide field of view offers unparalleled safety to the patient, making the 270Surgical laparoscope ideal for operating with trainees, an assistant, or performing complex minimally invasive surgery with a partner. After using the 270Surgical laparoscope, it is disappointing to return to using laparoscopes with a traditional field of view”

FAQ
What is Visual Intelligence and how does it help surgeons?
Visual Intelligence (V.I.) is the camera image you see on the monitor and serves as the backbone for all the other technologies (A.I., Robotics etc…) that help comprise the comprehensive platform called Digital Surgery. By increasing the amount of information visible to surgeons on the monitor, you not only provide caregivers with more information, but you also augment the impact of other complimentary technologies such as A.I.
How do you make MIS procedures safer?
Surgeons who have used Surroundscope immediately point to the fact that they have been blinded by tunnel vision ever since Laparoscopy was introduced to the market. If something detrimental happens to the patient OUTSIDE the surgeon’s Field-of-View, the injury may not be detected and remediated during the procedure. By using a 270 degree FoV, we reduce the likelihood that an injury will not be seen during the procedure.
What problems does 270Surgical address?
The 270Surgical Surroundscope platform mitigates 3 long-standing challenges facing Laparoscopists. We increase what has always been a highly restrictive Field-of-View from 70 degrees to 270 degrees. At the same time we eliminate the nuisance of fogging and greatly reduce the impact of surgical smoke on the visual acuity for caregivers.
What where the engineering challenges you had to overcome?
Over the past 5 years, the team has successfully assembled 3 cameras at the distal end of a standard sized Laparoscope. The design is incredibly well-conceived, and protected by a multitude of patents.
How have you tested the scope in use?
We have performed more than 80 cases on human patients in addition to a variety of labs on non-human specimines. The scope has been trialed by more than 20 surgeons in 3 countries and is receiving universally rave reviews.
How does 270Surgical help to reduce OR costs?
Our early data suggests a marked reduction in procedure time. This is not only better for the patient, but also reduces cost to the hospital.
What are the necessary training for new users?
There is virtually no-learning curve for the SurroundScope, as standard equipment is used, and the techniques remain the same. The caregivers simply operate as they did before and benefit from the improved Field-of-View, lack of fog and remediation of smoke / plume. We will in-service all users prior to trialing the product, and have found that surgeons adapt to the additional features within the first case they perform.
