Abstract

Robotics in surgery is becoming the gold standard of minimally invasive surgery for many different disciplines in the surgical field and in plastic surgery it has been used for harvesting the latissimus dorsal for breast reconstructive cases as well as some cases in microsurgery. In 2014, Dr Marco saw the many potentials in incorporating and adapting the use of robotic surgery into his field of interest – muscles aponeurotic rectus plication also known as abdominoplasty.  The core muscles play an important role in all of our daily activities as well as in our physiological function. Rectus diastasis can compromise the core muscle system function.
