Abstract
The article is discussing the development of robotic surgery from its beginnings to the present. Introducing the early stages of development thinking on the use of robots in medicine, special emphasis is devoted to the latest knowledge in the creation of flexible robots. Described are the advantages and disadvantages of robotic surgery in different applications and also look to the future: where it will and can be implemented. A special emphasis is put toward robotic learning, simulations, and in this respect also the question how to develop new skills. is potentially answered.
