abstract:
Minimally invasive surgical innovation has exploded in recent times. Currently, conventional laparoscopy is most widely adopted as the costs are relatively low. However, robotics and single port surgery are leading a revolution in surgery for wealthy health-care systems. We explore the historical and contemporary areas of this evolution.
