OBJECTIVE : Analysis of development of «robotic surgery» on the basis of historical prerequisites, review of the possibilities of the new Senhance robotic surgical system and determination of further perspective.

MATERIAL AND METHODS : A prospective group of 51 patients with surgical pathology who underwent surgical interventions using the new Senhance robotic system was analyzed. The study included 51 patients. Robot-assisted cholecystectomy was performed in 20 patients, 31 patients underwent robotic transabdominal preperitoneal plastic surgery.

RESULTS : A short-term analysis of intraoperative and early postoperative data showed the safety of using the Senhance robotic complex for the patient. The ergonomics of this system contributes to significantly less fatigue of the surgeon during the operation, increasing its efficiency and safety.

CONCLUSION : The emergence of competitive robotic systems contributes to the dynamic development of robotic surgery, which in turn will lead to a reduction in the cost of these technologies in the future. Innovative solutions used in modern robotic complexes are based on the principles of machine learning, which in due time will make the «robot surgeon» not just a tool, but a full-fledged member of the operating team.
