AB  - Bariatric surgery has been demonstrated to be effective in achieving significant 
      weight loss and remission of obesity-related comorbidities. However, a percentage 
      of patients fail to lose enough weight, regain weight, or experience 
      postoperative complications, requiring additional interventions. Revisional 
      bariatric surgeries (RBS) involve the wide spectrum of procedures that aim to 
      treat complications of the index operation or achieve further weight loss. These 
      are technically challenging procedures due to adhesions of the internal organs, 
      reduced working space, and a distorted anatomy. Indications, timing, and type of 
      operation for RBS are not standardized, and there is no consensus on the best 
      surgical approach. Some authors claim a robotic platform could be advantageous in 
      these types of procedures that are performed in reduced, deep operating fields, 
      or those requiring precision and accuracy. This review examines the most current 
      and representative literature on the outcomes of robot-assisted RBS. Included 
      studies demonstrate the safety and feasibility of the robotic approach for RBS. 
      However, long operative times and high costs remain major drawbacks of the 
      device. Finally, if we consider that many centers have not yet completed the 
      learning curve for robot-assisted RBS, the potential for improved outcomes seems 
      promising.
