Abstract

Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has emerged as one of the most transformative developments in modern surgical practice, significantly improving clinical outcomes while reducing patient trauma and recovery time. Continuous technological advancement, particularly in robotics, digital imaging, and artificial intelligence, has accelerated the evolution of MIS techniques. This article examines recent advancements in minimally invasive surgery implemented by leading American hospitals, focusing on technological innovations, integration of digital tools, organizational strategies, and their impact on patient outcomes. The analysis highlights the role of interdisciplinary collaboration, professional training, and quality management in ensuring the safe and effective adoption of MIS and assesses the broader implications for global surgical practice.

Keywords:

minimally invasive surgery, robotic surgery, artificial intelligence in surgery, laparoscopic techniques, healthcare innovation, patient safety.
