ROBOTIC SURGERY: EFFECTIVENESS AND SAFETY.
Abstract
Robotic surgery has been emerging as an innovative approach in medicine in recent years. This technology allows surgeons to perform complex and delicate operations with high precision, accelerate patient recovery through minimally invasive approaches, and increase surgical safety. The article analyzes the theoretical foundations, clinical applications, effectiveness, and safety of robotic surgery. At the same time, technological, economic, and skill-based limitations are also considered. The importance of robotic systems in improving patient health and increasing surgical safety is emphasized.
