A motorized surgical instrument that may be held by the surgeon or be attached to the surgeon's limb by means of a special adapter that includes an interface between the surgeon and the surgical tool. The motorized surgical instrument includes mechanism, motors, gears, interface and power source that enable the surgeon to easily control the motorized surgical tools in order perform the surgical procedure. The system differs from prior art systems in that the surgeon operates the tools by using the natural hand motions he would use if he were performing direct manual surgery on the subject. The described motorized surgical tool has a wider range of movement and reach than commonly used surgical tools. These new properties increase the possibilities of tool maneuvering by the surgeon, while allowing the surgeon to operate the motorized surgical tool segments easily while maintaining a comfortable posture. |
