Artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics have transformed patient treatment, diagnosis, surgical intervention, and the health industry. Robotic-assisted devices enhance procedural success, minimize recovery times, and maximize surgical precision. Motion control, decision-making, and real-time responsiveness in minimally invasive surgery have all been enhanced by the application of AI-based automation. Teleoperated robotic devices have enhanced access to specialist medical information through remote operation and expanded access to healthcare. In addition to these innovations, exorbitant costs, training, ethics, and cybersecurity issues continue to hamper developers from mass applications. These concerns must be addressed to ensure the safe, effective, and ethical use of robotic healthcare systems. To improve surgical performance, future research should focus on creating affordable alternatives, improving robotic dexterity, and integrating AI-based decision support. Robotic healthcare technologies will revolutionize healthcare delivery worldwide with future developments, improving the precision, accessibility, and efficiency of advanced medical interventions in the future.
