Laparoscopic versus robotic cholecystectomy: a systematic review with meta-analysis to differentiate between postoperative outcomes and cost-effectiveness.

RC failed to prove any clinical advantage over LC for postoperative outcomes including longer duration of operation moreover LC was more cost effective. Due to the paucity of randomised control trial (RCT) and significant heterogeneity, a major multicentre RCT is required to strengthen and validate the findings.
