Abstract

Abstract The authors outline the evidence that robotic‐assisted laparoscopic surgery has equivalent or better outcomes compared with laparoscopic or open surgery. With reduced hospital stay, faster recovery, reduction in blood product use and equivalent quality‐of‐life measures to laparoscopic techniques, this modern age of surgical technology is here to stay.
