Robotic surgery (RS) in abdominal procedures offers surgeon comfort and stable optics but lacks clear patient benefits over laparoscopic surgery (LS). Cost reduction is key for wider adoption.

Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Technology

Background:

  • Robotic surgery (RS) adoption in abdominal procedures is increasing, expanding beyond academic centers.
  • Despite technological advancements, a clear understanding of its comparative benefits remains elusive.
  • The current data landscape for RS in abdominal surgery is fragmented.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current applications of robotic devices in abdominal surgery.
  • To evaluate the advantages of robotic surgery (RS) compared to laparoscopic surgery (LS).

Main Methods:

  • Comprehensive evaluation of the current international literature.
  • Critical discussion focused on clinical trials.
  • Analysis of randomized controlled trials in abdominal surgery.
Keywords:

Main Results:

  • Robotic surgery offers a stable optical platform and enhanced mobility in confined spaces.
  • Disadvantages include higher costs and prolonged operative times.
  • No high-quality randomized controlled trials currently demonstrate a definitive advantage of RS over LS in abdominal surgery.

Conclusions:

  • Robotic surgery appears equivalent to laparoscopic surgery for patients, with significant improvements in surgeon comfort.
  • Further research and cost reduction are necessary for broader implementation.
  • RS may eventually replace LS for many abdominal surgical indications.
