The Original Investigation titled “Comparative Safety of Robotic-Assisted vs Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy,”1 published online September 20, 2023, and in the December 2023 issue, was corrected to fix an error in which the groups were transposed in the Results section. The first sentence of the Results section’s second paragraph should read as follows: “Of 1 001 004 patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery vs 25 084 who underwent robotic-assisted surgery, those who underwent robotic-assisted surgery were younger (mean [SD] age, 71.2 [11.6] vs 72.0 [12.0] years, P < .001) and more likely to be African American or Black (10.4% vs 8.9%, P < .001) or Hispanic (4.2% vs 3.7%, P < .001) (Table 1).” This article was corrected online.
