Initially introduced by urologists and gynecologists, this technology has now become a valuable tool in the treatment of various cancers, such as those affecting the gastrointestinal, hepato-pancreatico-biliary, colorectal, endocrine, and soft tissue systems. Although long-term outcomes are yet to be determined, short-term results indicate the potential of robotic surgery in the advancement of cancer treatment.
