Core Tip	Robotic rectopexy is a safe and feasible technique for the treatment of rectal prolapse with improved visualization and ease of suturing. The robotic approach can provide functional results and short term outcomes similar to laparoscopic surgery. However, increased operative time and higher cost are challenges. Further prospective clinical trials assessing the role of robotic surgery in the treatment of rectal prolapse are needed.
