Robotic surgery was developed precisely to overcome such technical limitations. The question therefore arises whether robotic surgery leads to significantly better results compared with standard laparoscopic surgery. %K robotic surgery %K laparoscopic surgery %K meta-analysis %K systematic review %K oncological surgery %U http://www.frontiersin.org/Journal/10.3389/fsurg.2014.00015/abstract
