Excerpt

The automation of surgery is becoming a reality with the “master-slave systems” introduced into urology. The first robot in clinical practice, AESOP, promised the advantages of precise control of visualization, and with the current da Vinci surgical system, the advantages of delicate manipulation for reconstructive surgery have been realized [2]. Some authors have argued that the term “robot” is not accurate for this system due to the lack of automation, and they have preferred “computer-assisted surgery” [3]. …
