Robotic surgery uses robotic systems to assist surgeons with complex procedures. The da Vinci system is the most commonly used surgical robot. It has three components - a console where the surgeon sits, a patient-side cart with four robotic arms controlled by the surgeon, and a display for other medical staff. Robotic surgery provides benefits like improved 3D vision, more precise movements, and smaller incisions, leading to less invasive procedures and faster recovery times for patients. Robotic systems are used in various specialties like general surgery, urology, cardiothoracic surgery, and neurosurgery for procedures such as prostate removal and heart valve replacement.
