Core Tip	The robotic procedure is safe; however, it is not acceptable as a standard operation for gallbladder disease because of its lack of benefits for patients as a result of the high cost and prolonged operating time. In the previous studies, port sites of robotic cholecystectomy were located on the supraumbilical area, similar to laparoscopic surgery. In this study, we changed the port placements from the upper abdominal area to the lower abdominal area.
