Myths & Misconceptions?Costs much more than traditional surgeryIs riskier than traditional surgery

Advantages

1. Simpler procedure2. Minimally invasive3. Better technique4. Less painful5. Reduce bleeding6. Smaller scar7. Faster healing8. Decreased hospital stay

Disadvantages1. Longer learning period2. High cost equipment &

maintainence ,there by procedure

3. Reduction in space for assistants

4. Lack of tactile sensation for the surgeon

5. Latency
