Robotic surgical devices, systems, and related methods

A method of performing minimally invasive surgery on a patient, the method comprising:

• positioning a robotic surgical system for performing the minimally invasive surgery on the patient, the robotic surgical system comprising:
• i) an elongate component;
• ii) first and second support members disposed through the elongate component;
• and
• iii) a robotic device comprising:
• A) a first robotic arm comprising a first operational component operably coupled with the first arm;
• B) a second robotic arm comprising a second operational component operably coupled with the second arm;
• and
• C) at least one motor housed within the robotic device;
• inserting the elongate component into the cavity of the patient through an incision in fluid communication with the cavity such that a distal portion of the elongate component and the robotic device are positioned within the body cavity and a proximal portion of the elongate component is positioned outside the body cavity, such that the robotic device is positioned within the body cavity;
• and
• performing a procedure with the robotic device supported by the elongate component and disposed entirely within the cavity of the patient.

A robotic surgical system, comprising:

• a) an elongate component configured to be positionable through an incision of a patient such that a distal portion of the elongate component is disposed within a cavity of the patient and a proximal portion of the elongate component is disposed outside the cavity;
• b) first and second support members disposed through the elongate component;
• and
• c) a robotic device sized to be positionable completely within the cavity of the patient, the device comprising:
• i) a first robotic arm operably coupled to the first support member, the first robotic arm comprising a first operational component operably coupled to the first robotic arm;
• ii) a second robotic arm operably coupled to the second support member, the second robotic arm comprising a second operational component operably coupled to the second robotic arm;
• and
• iii) at least one actuator housed within the robotic device.
