Abstract:
With the initiation of laparoscopic techniques in general surgery and a significant expansion of minimally invasive techniques in the last 20 years.However,some of the shortcomings of laparoscopic technology has limited it's surgical application.More recently,the da Vinci robotic surgical system further defined the ability of a roboticassist device to address limitations in laparoscopy.This in cludes a significant improvement in instrument dexterity,dampening of natural hand tremors,three dimensional visualization,ergonomics,and camera stability.As experiencewith robotic technology increased and its applications to advanced laparoscopic procedures have become more understood,more procedures have been performed with robotic assistance.We review the current status of da Vinci robotic technology and its applications in general surgical procedures.
