To the Editor:
Thank you for publishing our article titled “Comparison of the outcomes of robotic cholecystectomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy” in July issue 2017 (Ann Surg Treat Res 2017;93:27-34). In the original publication, we found a mistake in funding statement. We performed this study supported by grants from Kangbuk Samsung Hospital. Also in the title page (1st affiliation) and main text, we would like to revise the affiliation name from Kangbook Samsung Medical Center to Kangbuk Samsung Hospital. At the time of submission, we checked this, but it missed at the publication. We forgot to check it at correction period. The mistake was not due to the editorial office of Annals of Surgical Treatment and Research. We attached a corrigendum along with this letter to request for change organization.
Corrected funding statement in ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The authors acknowledge Kangbuk Samsung Hospital for their support to perform this study at the institution.
