I agree when I was in the royal free renal ward (London UK) one of the guys in the bed next to me was in his mid 80's and had robot surgery to remove a problem kidney - his doctor had told him that he was the oldest patient in the UK to have this op I suspect that the older style of surgery might not have been possible.
