Neil Thomas wished he could have been awake during the operation to remove a 6cm cancerous tumour from his colon. He was one of the first people to go under the scalpel of University Hospital of Wales\u2019s new robotic systems in June 2022.

Thomas\u2019s surgeon, James Ansell, would once have stooped over his patient\u2019s body to perform the operation. Instead, he stood behind a console on another side of the theatre wearing 3D glasses. His hands grasped two joysticks, which controlled the four robotic arms that huddled around Thomas\u2019s unconscious body.<\/p>\n
