A surgeon at the Lifeline Hospital, Chennai, India, did a simple upper gastro-intestinal laparoscopy procedure on a 45-year old man and a simple Hernia on a 42-year old woman.

"It felt like I was glancing at my rearview mirror while driving. I was focusing on the surgeries and talking to my students at the same time. At one point, I stopped feeling it was an external device," said Dr J S Rajkumar, chief surgeon of the hospital.
