Synthesize current advances in artificial intelligence across preoperative planning, intraoperative execution, and postoperative monitoring in surgical oncology while identifying persistent clinical barriers.
Narrative review evaluating artificial intelligence technologies and clinical integration strategies across the perioperative timeline.
Assessed functional implementations in risk scoring, imaging analysis, surgical robotics, remote telepresence, and post-discharge complication tracking.
Preoperative AI tools enhance risk prediction, image segmentation, and virtual training simulations, while intraoperative systems enable real-time surgical navigation, robotic assistance, and 5G telesurgery.
Postoperative AI-driven telemonitoring and recovery algorithms optimize complication detection and healthcare resource utilization.
Widespread clinical implementation remains impeded by training data bias, opaque 'black-box' decision-making, privacy risks, poor cross-institution generalizability, and real-time computing limits.
