Abstract: In recent years, along with the unremitting efforts of clinical practitioners and the innovation of science and technology, minimally invasive technique has developed rapidly, and robot assisted surgical system has been invented. As a minimally invasive and precise technique, robot assisted surgical system can also be used by remote operation, which is the important development direction of surgical technique in modern era. Robot assisted surgical system has been applied extensively in the field of kidney transplantation, which is one of the research hot spots in this field. At present, da Vinci surgical system is more commonly adopted. In this article, the development history and current status of robot assisted surgical system in the field of kidney transplantation were introduced. The main advantages and disadvantages were summarized and the technical key points were discussed. The evaluation scheme and prospect of robot assisted kidney transplantation were predicted, which may promote the application of robot assisted surgical system in kidney transplantation and provide reference for improving clinical prognosis of kidney transplant recipients.
