Abstract

BACKGROUND: Thermal damage during surgical procedures is a critical factor influencing patient safety and outcomes, particularly in minimally invasive laparoscopic surgeries. Advanced robotic-assisted surgical systems, such as the Anovo® Surgical System, incorporate monopolar electrosurgical tools designed to optimize precision while minimizing collateral tissue damage. This study evaluates the th…
