Abstract
The clinical applications of robotics in general surgery are broad, spanning from bariatrics, hernias, foregut, colorectal, and solid organs. All the clinical studies and published literature identify that the minimally invasive approach provided by robotics is not inferior to that of laparoscopic surgery. However, considerations such as the learning curve, operative time, and cost are significant. This chapter provides a background on the utilization of robotics in general surgery, and in-depth evaluations of the clinical applications of robotics in bariatric surgery, hernia surgery, colorectal surgery, foregut surgery, and solid organ surgery.
