Abstract

For centuries, man has fought in different ways diseases that attack the human body. Technological developments applied in medicine, have been since the advent of the first doctors who used stone tools and rustic metal, to today, who make use of technological advances through innovative and effective tools to save human lives and eradicate diseases more effectively. The development of robotics, widely used in the industrial process, has enabled further optimization of resources and greater accuracy, it has not been apart from medicine. Thus, today the Da Vinci robot is used successfully in cardiac surgery. Robotic surgery represents worldwide the latest technological advancement in minimally invasive surgical procedures.
