About

Clemens Poth is a pioneering surgeon and researcher at the forefront of robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery, with a particular focus on pediatric urology and general abdominal procedures. His major contributions center on the clinical validation and safety assessment of the Senhance® robotic system, a next-generation platform offering haptic feedback and eye-tracking camera control. Dr. Poth achieved a world-first by performing the first pediatric pyeloplasty using the Senhance® system on a 1.5-year-old girl, a landmark case published in 2022 (12 citations) that demonstrated the feasibility of robotic surgery in very young children. He also led the first multicenter report from the TRUST registry on inguinal hernia TAPP repair using the platform (10 citations), and conducted a comprehensive safety analysis across 530 patients (3 citations), establishing critical benchmarks for system reliability. His work directly addresses the pressing need for safety data in emerging robotic technologies, helping to expand access to precise, minimally invasive care for both pediatric and adult populations. Dr. Poth’s research is instrumental in shaping the future of robotic surgery, bridging innovation with rigorous clinical evidence.
