Popis: With the introduction of robotic-assisted surgical systems to surgical practice, there has been great progress and advancement in minimally invasive surgery (MIS). Robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) has proven useful in reducing the risks and complications associated with open surgical procedures, thereby extending the benefits of MIS to a broader population of patients. RAS has made its way into almost every surgical discipline. Urology has been in the forefront of employing and standardizing robotic-assisted procedures in fields such as oncologic and reconstructive urology.
