Abstract Purpose Robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is a tissue-preserving approach to treating renal cancer, where ultrasound (US) imaging is used for intra-operative identification of tumour margins and localisation of blood vessels. With the da Vinci Surgical System (Sunnyvale, CA), the US probe is inserted through an auxiliary access port, grasped by the robotic tool and moved over the surface of the kidney. Images from US probe are displayed separately to the surgical site video within the surgical console leaving the surgeon to interpret and co-registers information which is challenging and complicates the procedural workflow. Methods We introduce a novel software architecture to support a hardware soft robotic rail designed to automate intra-operative US acquisition. As a preliminary step towards complete task automation, we automatically grasp the rail and position it on the tissue surface so that the surgeon is then able to manipulate manually the US probe along it. Results A preliminary clinical study, involving five surgeons, was carried out to evaluate the potential performance of the system. Results indicate that the proposed semi-autonomous approach reduced the time needed to complete a US scan compared to manual tele-operation. Conclusion Procedural automation can be an important workflow enhancement functionality in future robotic surgery systems. We have shown a preliminary study on semi-autonomous US imaging, and this could support more efficient data acquisition.

Robotic laparoscopy in gynecology, which started in 2005 when the Da Vinci Surgical System (Intuitive Surgical Inc) was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for use in gynecologic procedures, represents today a modern, safe, and precise approach to pathology in this field. Since then, a great deal of experience has accumulated, and it has been shown that there is almost no gynecological surgery that cannot be approached with this technology, namely hysterectomy, myomectomy, sacrocolpopexia, and surgery for the treatment of endometriosis. Albeit no advantages have been observed over conventional laparoscopy and some open surgical procedures, robotics do seem to be advantageous in highly complicated procedures when extensive dissection and proper anatomy reestablishment is required, as in the case of oncologic surgery. There is no doubt that implementation of better logistics in finance, training, design, and application will exert a positive effect upon robotics expansion in gynecological medicine. Contrary to expectations, we estimate that a special impact is to be seen in emerging countries where novel technologies have resulted in benefits in the organization of health care systems.

Objectives Since the introduction of the first master–slave robotic platform for surgical procedures, there have been ongoing modifications and development of new platforms, but there is still a paucity of commercially available systems. Our study aims to identify all master–slave robotic surgical platforms currently commercially available or in development around the world with applications in urologic surgery. Methods A scoping literature search was performed using PRISMA methodology to identify all relevant publications in English in PubMed, PubMed Central, and Embase, with additional information being obtained from official company websites. Results Ten robotic platforms with either proven or potential application in urologic surgery were identified: the da Vinci surgical system (Intuitive), Senhance surgical system (Transentrix), Versius Surgical (CMR Ltd), Enos surgical system (Titan Medical), Revo –I (Meere Company), MiroSurge (DLR), Avatera System (Avatera Medical), Hugo Surgical Robot (Medtronic), Ottava (J&J, Ethicon, Areus), and Hinotori (Medicaroid Corporation). Conclusions This review highlights the distinct features of emerging master–slave robotic platforms with applications in urologic surgery. Research and development are now focused on finding wider applications, improving outcomes, increasing availability, and reducing cost. Additional research is required comparing newly developed master–slave robotic platforms with those already well established.
