I'm having my kidney removed for transplant in February. The hospital offered to have the surgery performed with robotic tools where I'm never actually touched by surgeons -- they are controlling the tools from a workstation. These tools have come under fire because a certain number of surgeries have gone wrong using them, but it seems like when you compare the number of incidents vs the number of surgeries performed the percentage of error is significantly smaller than those performed by human hands. That said, I definitely agree that it is only a matter of time before a robot will be handling the surgery from start to finish, having learned how to perform the task by trained surgeons. The complications arise when the robot runs into difficult situations and things that happen outside of their defined work patterns.
