Meet StimsiteTM
Allotrope Medical is dedicated to increasing the safety and efficiency of pelvic surgery. We have integrated new technology into existing laparoscopic instruments and robotic platforms to create a better surgical experience for physicians and patients.
Ureter identification is a critical and time consuming step in pelvic surgery
Identifying the ureter and mapping its pathway is a key step in ensuring a safe pelvic operation, such as hysterectomy, endometriosis excision, sacrocolpopexies, and colon resection, and many other common pelvic operations.
StimSite™ applies safe electrical stimulation to ureter smooth muscle - which triggers visible movement on demand.
The surgeon can use StimSite™ to mimic natural physiological signals to elicit the characteristic ureteral movement to help locate and identify ureters. StimSite™ has been used in endometriosis cases, high BMI cases, and scarred peritoneum settings. It has also been used for common procedures, like laparoscopic or robotic hysterectomies where ureter identification is a key step of the procedure.
Simple integration with your surgical team’s existing workflow

It works with robotic platforms and bipolar arms.
StimSite™ smooth muscle stimulation system fits smartly in an electrosurgical unit towers and integrates seamlessly for ease of use.
