  • Eight studies included 170 procedures.
  • Overall morbidity rate was 11.6%, with no reported mortalities.
  • Mean operative time was 264.8 minutes, mean hospital stay was 7.8 days, and conversion rate was 6.6%.
  • Robotic-assisted surgery incurred higher costs compared to laparoscopy or open surgery.

    • Conclusions:

    • Robotic-assisted hepatic resection appears safe and feasible.
    • Low mortality and morbidity rates were observed.
    • Further research is required to evaluate oncological outcomes and long-term efficacy.
