Abstract

Primarily, it is a computer-assisted surgery. It's a modified future of minimally invasive surgery. With this method, the surgeon makes decisions and gives commands, and a robot carries out the surgery. The main advantage of robotic or minimally invasive surgery is that instead of operating patients through large incisions, patients get operated on through small incisions with less trauma to the tissue. There is less pain and a shorter hospital stay with an early return to work.
