MICROPORT® MEDBOT™'S TOUMAI™ ENDOSCOPIC SURGICAL ROBOT SYSTEM COMPLETES MULTIPLE LANDMARK ROBOTIC TELESURGERY CASES IN SUB-SAHARA AFRICA IN THE REPUBLIC OF ANGOLA

"My team came here to Angola to help the country for a great humanitarian purpose. The potential of robotics, remote surgery and education is the future of healthcare equity for countries such as Angola, " said Dr. Vipul Patel, "By being able to operate remotely, we have demonstrated for the first time in Africa the potential route for future humanitarian success. Today was proof of concept with our entire team here, we must proceed with caution and safety in the future."

A key feature of the Toumai^TM system is its telesurgery application, which holds transformative potential for the future of healthcare. Telesurgery allows surgeons to perform procedures remotely, leveraging high-speed data transfer and real-time communication. This capability is particularly crucial for extending specialized surgical care to underserved or remote areas, thereby bridging gaps in healthcare access. By enabling expert surgeons to guide complex operations from a distance, telesurgery not only enhances the reach of medical services but also ensures that patients in remote locations receive the highest standard of care. This innovative approach can significantly reduce disparities in healthcare access and improve outcomes across diverse populations. To date, Toumai^TM has successfully completed over 200 human robotic telesurgery cases globally.

"We are proud to participate in these landmark robot telesurgery cases to bring the Toumai^TM system to this region of the world," said Dr. He Chao, Founder and President of MicroPort^® MedBot^TM, "In time, we will look back on this date and this achievement and recognize that this was the foundational event for how the delivery of healthcare was revolutionized in Angola with Toumai^TM and the promise of telesurgery."

MicroPort^® Medbot^TM's Toumai^TM Surgical Robot System was specifically developed to improve outcomes and enhance operational efficiency for all surgical procedures. Designed with both surgeons and patients in mind, the Toumai^TM system integrates advanced robotics, high-definition 3D visualization, and intuitive control interfaces to offer an unprecedented level of precision and control for surgeons. Toumai^TM is currently approved to be used in urology, thoracic, general, gynecology, thyroid and breast, and pediatric surgeries. Toumai^TM is currently approved and commercially available in China, the European Union and other countries recognizing NMPA and CE Mark approvals.
