A remote appendectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the appendix that is performed using robotic-assisted technology, typically from a distance. Surgeons operate robotic instruments through small incisions while controlling the robot from a console, allowing for enhanced precision and minimal invasiveness. This approach can reduce recovery time and postoperative discomfort compared to traditional open surgery.
