Da Vinci platform robotic adrenalectomy for adrenal neoplasms: a GRADE-assessed systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective randomized trials comparing perioperative, postoperative, and economic outcomes with laparoscopic adrenalectomy
Key Points
Robotic adrenalectomy may enhance perioperative outcomes compared to traditional laparoscopic techniques, indicating potential benefits for patients.
In meta-analysis of multiple trials, significant improvements in postoperative recovery were noted when using robotic systems for adrenal surgery.
Systematic review included prospective randomized trials, focusing on both clinical and economic implications of robotic versus laparoscopic approaches.
Implementing robotic-assisted surgery for adrenal neoplasms may lead to better outcomes, highlighting advancements in surgical techniques.
