Robotic abdominopelvic surgery: a systematic review of cross-platform outcomes.
Pal A, Gamage R. Pal A, et al. J Robot Surg. 2024 Oct 29;18(1):386. doi: 10.1007/s11701-024-02144-w. J Robot Surg. 2024. PMID: 39470929
As the global surgical robotic ecosystem diversifies, multi-platform surgery is becoming increasingly common. The natural question is whether these robots differ in performance and cost. We address this question and report the first systematic review comparing platf …
