Does Robotic Adrenalectomy Outperform Laparoscopic Approaches in Obese Patients? A Systematic Review and Subgroup Meta-Analysis of 1,107 Patients. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Obesity poses technical challenges in adrenalectomy. Robotic adrenalectomy (RA) offers advantages over laparoscopic adrenalectomy (LA), but evidence in obese patients remains limited. Methods A meta‐analysis of comparative studies through 2025 assessed perioperative outcomes of RA versus LA, with subgroup analyses by body habitus ...
