Robotic Surgery in Gynecology Critical Review
Abstract
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) can be considered as the best surgical innovation in the course of recent years. It changed surgical practice with all well demonstrated benefits over conventional open a surgical procedure: reduced surgical trauma and incision related complications, like surgical site infections, postoperative pain, hernia, decreased hospital stay, and improved surgical outcome. Regardless, capability in MIS can be technically challenging as conventional laparoscopy is related with several constraints as the two-dimensional (2D) screen decrease in-depth perception, camera instability, restricted scope of movement, and steep learning curves.
The surgeon has a low force feedback, which permits straightforward motions, respect for tissues, and more effective treatment of complications. Since the 1980s, many PC sciences and robotic projects have been set up to beat the challenges experienced with regular laparoscopy, to increase the surgeon's abilities, accomplish exactness and increased accuracy during conventional laparoscopy, and work with widespread of MIS. Surgical instruments are coordinated by haptic interfaces that replicate and filter hand movements. Robotically assisted technology offers benefits that incorporate worked on three-dimensional stereoscopic vision, wristed instruments that further develop ability, and tremor cancelling software that improves surgical precision.
