Random effects modeling using intention to treat data, and individual patient as unit of analysis, was used for analyses. Seven comparative studies including 289 patients were included. The two groups were comparable in terms of baseline characteristics. The minimally invasive approach was associated with less intraoperative blood loss (mean difference [MD]: -153.13 mL, <i>p</i> = 0.0004); however, this did not translate into less need for blood transfusion (odds ratio [OR]: 0.30, <i>p</i> = 0.06).
