Abstract
A robot is a computer-controlled device that can be programmed to aid the positioning and manipulation of surgical instruments also. The goal of robotic surgery is to use a minimally invasive approach to perform procedures which are generally performed by laparotomy or are too complex for routine laparoscopy. There are certain advantages of robotic over conventional laparoscopy which include better imaging, mechanical improvement, stabilization of instruments within the surgical field, and improved ergonomics. The major advantage to the patient is a potentially shorter hospital stay, and more rapid postoperative recovery and return to full function. The limitations of robotic technology include high costs, increased operating room time due to large size of the devices and need for training. Surgical simulation, telementoring, and telepresence surgery are potential novel benefits of robotic technology. Further evaluation and implementation will determine the role of robot-assisted laparoscopy.
