Abstract

This short communication examines the advancement of robotic-based procedures in the medical industry. The surgical robot aims to increase surgical capabilities and address human shortcomings. Accurate and consistent repetition has been the key to robot’s success. As an alternative to traditional open surgery, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) in gynecology minimizes trauma to surrounding tissues, reduces pain, accelerates recovery, and improves patient outcomes. Many gynecological procedures are now performed using minimally invasive approaches, such as laparoscopic and robotic-assisted surgery (RAS). In order to improve surgical maneuverability and physical abilities, robotic technology can achieve the following objectives and benefits. Laparoscopic surgeries using robots in benign gynecology, myomectomy, hysterectomy, endometriosis, tubal anastomosis, and sacrocolpopexy are all discussed in this study. There is little evidence to support the use of laparoscopic surgery (LAP) over traditional surgery for benign gynecological illnesses. In more complex operations, robotics does help. The conversion rate of robotic assistance to open surgery is lower than that of laparoscopy. Sutures performed by automated machines during myomectomy surgery are more effective and accurate than those performed by traditional laparoscopies. The automated program is a noticeable improvement overlap, and, if price issues can be resolved, it may become more popular among gynecological surgeons worldwide. We also discussed the main advantages and limitations of RAS in comparison to LAP in gynecology
