AB Innovations  in  robotic  technology  are  transforming  the  way  surgeons  operate  in  the  21st  century.  Robotic  surgical  platforms  grant  surgeons  access  to  modern-world  defining  robotic  engineering  and  computer  programming,  which  enhance  the  surgeon’s  operative  view  and  augment  his  or  her  manual  dexterity.1-3  These  surgical  tools  were  developed  with  the  goal  of  helping  surgeons  overcome  the  limitations  of  laparoscopy  and  to  facilitate  the  broader  adaptation  of  minimally  invasive  surgery  to  include  more  complex  abdominal  procedures.4-8  The  technologic  superiority  of  robotic  surgical  platforms  over  existing  open  and  laparoscopic  instruments  is  undisputed,  with  the  potential  to  harvest  significant  advantages  for  the  surgeon  and,  ultimately,  translate  them  for  improved  patient  outcomes.
