08:19 AM EDT, 10/10/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Intuitive Surgical's ( ISRG ) acquisition of sole control over AB Medica's distribution business for Intuitive's robotically assisted surgery equipment in certain territories has been approved by the European Commission, the regulator said Friday.

The Commission said it cleared the transaction following a normal merger review, concluding that the deal would not raise competition concerns due to its limited impact on markets where the companies operate.
