Progress in application of robotics and artificial intelligence in field of hernia surgery

Abstract

In recent years, the rapid development of robotics and artificial intelligence(AI) has gradually extended to all surgical fields. After experiencing the first major revolution brought by laparoscopic surgery, hernia surgery has also entered the era of robotics and AI. This article reviewed the milestone events of robotic surgery application in hernia surgery and the rapid development of domestic robots. AI mainly includes four fields: machine learning, natural language processing, artificial neural networks, and computer vision. This article introduced the current applications of AI in actual cases, including preoperative risk factor analysis, intraoperative navigation, and postoperative complication prediction models, both domestically and internationally. It also explained the limitations and ethical issues of current technology, and looked forward to future development directions. Surgeons should pay attention to and follow the latest development of robotics and AI, and apply them to clinical practice, thereby benefiting patients.
