Medtronic merges robotic, legacy surgery businesses into one unit

Medtronic has combined its robotic-assisted surgery technology and older surgical devices into a single operating unit led by Mike Marinaro.
The company disclosed the change, which was first reported by MassDevice, in an update to its website, which now says Marinaro leads a “newly combined Surgical Operating Unit” that brings together “a legacy of surgical devices and the new robotic-assisted surgery technology.”
