This is a multi-center cohort study, evaluating short-term clinical outcomes after complex robotic-assisted and laparoscopic cholecystectomies. The primary outcomes include the rate of conversion to open, rate of intra-operative adverse events, the rate of post-operative adverse events relating to the cholecystectomy within 30 days, and re-admissions and re-operations relating to the cholecystectomy within 30 days. In addition, operative time, the rate of use of intra-operative imaging, the hospital length of stay, and pain and QOL scores will be collected as secondary outcomes.
