Objective:

To correct the conflict of interest statement regarding Author PDB's financial relationship with MEDANNOT s.r.o. in the context of the article on surgical approaches in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy.

Approach:
  • Correction: The conflict of interest statement was updated to reflect that Author PDB has been a co-founder and shareholder of MEDANNOT s.r.o. (Spania Dolina, Slovakia) since March 2024. MEDANNOT is an online platform for segmentation of CT scans into 3D models.
Key Findings:
  • The original conflict of interest statement was incorrect.
  • The updated statement clarifies the financial relationship of one author, which is essential for understanding potential biases.
Interpretation:

The correction ensures transparency regarding potential conflicts of interest among the authors.

Conclusion:

The article has been updated to accurately reflect the conflict of interest statement.
