Abstract

Objective: To review the history, development, current applications, and future of robotic technology.

Design: The MEDLINE database was reviewed for all publications on robotic technology in medicine, surgery, reproductive endocrinology, its role in surgical education, and telepresence surgery.

Setting: University medical center.

Conclusion(s): Robotic-assisted surgery is an emerging technology, which provides an alternative to traditional surgical techniques in reproductive medicine and may have a role in surgical education and telepresence surgery.
