aThe study included three renal transplant recipients and 225 non transplant patients and compared their outcomes.
bThe study included a total of thirteen renal transplant recipients, nine of which underwent RARP, three underwent LRP and one underwent open retropubic RP; it also included 78 nontransplant patients who underwent RARP. It compared the outcomes of the patients undergoing the robotic associated approach to the laparoscopic approach as well as to the nontransplant patient population.
