Artificial Intelligence (AI) and robotics are transforming the world of surgery by making procedures more precise, efficient, and ultimately improving patient outcomes. As healthcare systems around the globe increasingly turn into AI-driven tools, the use of robotics in surgical settings is helping to solve key issues such as accuracy in procedures, the demand for minimally invasive techniques, and the need for better access to quality care. Still, challenges remain particularly around unequal access and ethical concerns related to automation. The review aims to explore how AI and robotic technologies are being integrated into surgical practices, showcasing some of the most significant innovations and their growing role in precision medicine. What sets the review apart is its comprehensive approach, drawing insights from various surgical specialties like urology, plastic surgery, ophthalmology, and pediatric surgery. By reviewing 12 peer-reviewed studies published in 2024 and using a narrative synthesis approach, the paper highlights major advancements in AI-assisted surgeries. Key findings point to the increasing role of AI in improving surgical decisions, reducing errors, and enabling more tailored treatment plans. Innovations such as AI-enhanced imaging, real-time data analysis, and intelligent robotic instruments are making surgeries safer and more efficient. The discussion also touches on how these tools are expanding the possibilities for minimally invasive and complex procedures. However, barriers such as high costs, ethical questions, and the need for proper training are slowing down broader adoption. The review calls on policymakers, healthcare providers, and tech developers to work together in overcoming these obstacles and ensuring fair access to these life-changing technologies. While the review focuses on recent studies, it highlights the need for long-term research to better understand clinical outcomes. Future directions should include combining AI with other technologies like augmented reality, encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration, and thoughtfully addressing the ethical and social impacts of AI in surgery.
