Synopsis

The first multimedia medicaltext of its kind―presenting the most comprehensive and up-to-date full-colormaterial about robotics in General Surgery

A Doody's Core Title for 2026!

The Foundation and Art ofRobotic Surgery facilitates thelearning of surgery while applying robotic technology in multiple anatomicallocations, using a comprehensive, concise and practical description of eachstandardized surgical procedure. The book provides clear descriptions of theinstrument requirements, indications and relative contraindications to therobotic approach, preoperative phases including trocar placement, patientpositioning, OR set-up, and a detailed description of the operative steps.Each operation is dividedinto steps with specific timeframes, for learning and teaching purposes.Readers will learn how to use robots to make smaller incisions, decrease bloodloss and postoperative pain, as well as foster quicker healing time and reducehospital stays. Written by the senior editors with the contribution ofinternationally renowned robotic surgeons and academics, this is an invaluableresource for both beginner and experienced surgeons performing roboticprocedures for the first time.The Foundation and Art ofRobotic Surgery features:

• Techniques for robotic transplant surgery, renal aneurysm repair and single port robotic surgery principles
