CURRENT STATUS OF ROBOTIC AND LAPAROSCOPIC UROLOGIC SURGERY IN THE UNITED STATES

Summary

Minimally-invasive urologic surgery has potential benefits for patients whether performed laparoscopically or in robot-assisted fashion. Laparoscopic techniques require specialized training to overcome limitations that robotics has attempted to address. This may explain the rapid adoption of robotic surgery among uro­logists in the U.S., particularly for prostate cancer, in contrast with standard laparoscopy. Current trends in resident training in laparoscopy and robotics in the U.S. may have implications for the landscape of minimally-invasive urology in the future.

Key words:
laparoscopy, robotics, surgical education, treatment
