Does robot‐assisted laparoscopic ileocystoplasty (RALI) reduce peritoneal adhesions compared with open surgery?

To compare perioperative outcomes between open ileocystoplasty and robot‐assisted laparoscopic ileocystoplasty (RALI) in a porcine model, as objective data comparing outcomes between these two approaches in children with neurogenic bladder are lacking. We specifically examined differences in postoperative peritoneal adhesion formation between the groups.
