Recent Interventional medicine has been radically altered by end luminal procedures, which can be thought of as minimally invasive surgeries carried out within blood arteries or other hollow structures. The development of multipurpose robot technology has enabled substantial advancements in the performance of various treatments, leading to improvements in precision, maneuverability, and the outcomes for patients. In this study, we investigate the recent developments in the field of end luminal treatments and the benefits that come along with using adaptable robot technology. Recent technical breakthroughs in robotics and the growing emphasis on less invasive procedures have led to the development of highly adaptable surgical robots. These bendable robots can navigate tight spaces, increasing the accessibility of robotic surgery and perhaps decreasing the number of incisions required. This article describes new flexible surgical robot systems and discusses the most pressing technological challenges in this sector, with a focus on their potential uses in end luminal surgery. Furthermore, the form and force sensing of flexible robots, as well as the difficulties and recent developments in these areas, are also highlighted as important technological topics. The clinical benefits and technological advancements of new flexible surgical robot systems are also presented, along with their medical applications.
