Since its introduction, laparoscopic surgery has been often preferred over open surgery in obstetrics and gynecology due to its advantages, such as less bleeding, lower incidence of adhesions, reduced postoperative pain, short hospital stay, and quick return to daily life. However, in the case of complex surgeries, laparoscopy presented some limitations. Nonetheless, since the 1980s, medical robots have been introduced to overcome the technical limitations of laparoscopy and start a new age for minimally invasive surgery. In this review, we explore the indications and advantages and disadvantages of robotic surgery in the field of gynecology, and try to assess the recent trend of robotic surgery.

At our institution, scrub nurses leave the surgical field during the console time for robotic surgeries to attend to other duties. The first assistant then assumes their responsibilities, allowing for efficient use of staff time and resources. This practice improves teamwork and can be presented as a cost-saving measure for hospital administrations.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming healthcare, particularly in orthopedics, by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, surgical planning, and personalized treatment. This review explores current applications of AI in orthopedics, focusing on its contributions to diagnostics and surgical procedures. Key methodologies such as artificial neural networks (ANNs), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), support vector machines (SVMs), and ensemble learning have significantly improved diagnostic precision and patient care.

Bochdalek hernias arise from a developmental failure of the pleuroperitoneal canal to close, allowing abdominal contents to herniate into the thorax and compress the developing lung parenchyma. In rare cases, Bochdalek hernias may arise in adults and usually present with symptoms related to the hernia. Treatment consists of either open, laparoscopic, or robotic repair to close the defect.

To assess the clinical outcomes of robot-assisted proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) surgery in elderly patients with unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures (UFIFs). 151 patients who underwent UFIF and PFNA surgery between January 2020 and May 2024 were analyzed retrospectively. Of these, 78 patients were treated with traditional PFNA surgery (control group), and 73 patients were treated with robot-assisted PFNA surgery (observation group).

The most significant research on inguinal hernia repair utilizing r-TAPP procedure includes follow-up periods of up to 2 years and examines approximately 150 cases. This article presents data from 434 consecutive r-TAPP procedures conducted on 324 patients, with follow-up ranging from a minimum of 3 years to 8 years.
