Till now, laparoscopic adrenalectomy has established itself as the procedure of choice for benign adrenal disorders. Brandao et al. have recently accomplished a thorough systematic review and meta-analysis of nine trials comparing laparoscopic and robotic adrenalectomy. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of conversion rate [odds ratio (OR): 0.82; 95% CI, 0.39-1.75; P=0.61] and operative time (WMD: 5.88; 95% CI, −6.02 to 17.79; P=0.33). There was a significantly longer hospital stay in the conventional laparoscopic group (WMD: −0.43; 95% CI, −0.56 to −0.30; P},
