“…Instead, the challenges are likely to arise from the non-surgical aspects of the technology. The legal problems it might run into can be a discouragement for some surgeons, as can the ethical aspects of it for others [ 64 , 65 ]. Manufacturers should not only focus on increasing autonomy but also prioritize collaborative robotic surgery [ 66 ] since the rate of adoption of robotic surgery is not going to be based solely on surgical outcomes but is also going to be influenced by surgeon satisfaction [ 67 ].…”

Robotic surgery has rapidly evolved as a groundbreaking field in medicine, revolutionizing surgical practices across various specialties. Despite its numerous benefits, the adoption of robotic surgery faces significant medicolegal challenges. This article delves into the underexplored legal implications of robotic surgery and identifies three distinct medicolegal problems. First, the lack of standardized training and credentialing for robotic surgery poses potential risks to patient safety and surgeon competence. Second, informed consent processes require additional considerations to ensure patients are fully aware of the technology's capabilities and potential risks. Finally, the issue of legal liability becomes complex due to the involvement of multiple stakeholders in the functioning of robotic systems. The article highlights the need for comprehensive guidelines, regulations, and training programs to navigate the medicolegal aspects of robotic surgery effectively, thereby unlocking its full potential for the future..

“…These tools allow surgeons to conduct complex surgical procedures with more precision, potentially lowering the risk of errors ultimately improving patient outcomes. 1 AI, on the other hand, can also incorporate its cognitive abilities to the tasks at hand. From image identification to predictive analytics, AI helps doctors diagnose illnesses, plan procedures, and even carry out certain elements of the procedure.…”

In the ever-evolving world of modern healthcare, the incorporation of cutting-edge technologies has ushered surgical treatments into a new era.r This editorial digs into the disruptive influence of technical breakthroughs, specifically the merger of robots and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the surgical scene of Pakistan. Furthermore, it investigates the potential of telemedicine to overcome healthcare gaps in rural or disadvantaged locations, while also addressing ethical considerations, implementation challenges, and future prospects. The digital era has brought about a paradigm shift in surgical methods, with robotics and AI taking centre stage. Surgical robots, led by precise algorithms and realtime data analysis, have transformed the accuracy and efficiency of surgeries. These tools allow surgeons to conduct complex surgical procedures with more precision, potentially lowering the risk of errors ultimately improving patient outcomes.1
