Single Site Robotic Cholecystectomy in Non Selected Patients (SSRC)

September 22, 2017 updated by: University of California, Davis
This is a study of new technology to allow gallbladder removal through a single small surgical incision. A surgical robot is utilized to help navigate the small space. In this study, patient characteristics are broad to assess how applicable the procedure is to everyone.

Study Population

All patients who are referred to the surgery program with non-emergency gallbladder disease, for which cholecystectomy is indicated, will be given the opportunity to participate. Referred patients typically come from the primary care setting. The demographic composition of the study population will depend in the patient referred to the program.
