"Empowering access to the benefits of robotic surgery"
Swiss MedTech company developing the DEXTER robotic surgery system for soft tissue laparoscopic procedures in any operating room.
Distalmotion is a Lausanne, Switzerland-based MedTech company founded in 2012, spun out of the Robotics Lab at EPFL. The company develops the DEXTER Robotic Surgery System, a compact, mobile soft tissue surgical robot designed to bring wristed robotic surgery to any operating room without facility modifications. DEXTER holds FDA clearance for laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair, cholecystectomy, and total benign hysterectomy in the US, with broader indications in Europe including urologic, general, and gynecologic procedures.
With nearly 3,000 patients treated across Europe and the US and a particular focus on ambulatory surgery centers, Distalmotion raised $150 million in November 2025 to accelerate US commercial expansion.
