Description

• Minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery is considered standard of care for adult and pediatric patients .

• Robotic surgery (RS) for adult patients has been widely adopted due to superior ergonomics, visualization, depth perception, and access to deeper anatomical structures2,3.

• Historically, RS is associated with longer operative times, higher cost, and lacks haptic feedback1,2.

• RS has had inconsistent adoption in the pediatric surgery community2.
