Abstract: Robotic surgery has revolutionized medicine during the last 16 years by transformation of the classic operating theaters into computer-mediated working stations. Numerous procedures have been proved to be feasible and safe by using the continuously evolving, various robotic platforms. From the early beginnings of this revolution, challenging operations such as those concerning the gastroesophageal junction, especially in super-obese patients or during redo operations, proved out to have certain benefits when performed robotically, both for patients as well as for surgeons.
