Abstract

Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) represents a transformative shift in surgical practice, offering patients safer and more efficient alternatives to traditional open procedures. This paper explores the historical development, current applications, and future trends of MIS, with a focus on techniques such as laparoscopy, robotic-assisted surgery, endoscopy, and image-guided interventions. The evolution of these methods has been driven by advances in technology, surgical instrumentation, and an emphasis on patient-centered care. Benefits of MIS include reduced postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays, faster recovery times, and lower complication rates. Despite its advantages, challenges such as steep learning curves, high costs, and limited access in low-resource settings persist. Understanding the trajectory of minimally invasive techniques is essential for guiding surgical education, healthcare policy, and continued innovation in modern medicine.
