Formaldehyde is a colorless, strong-smelling gas that is often found in water-based solutions and most commonly used as a preservative. Workers can inhale the gas vapor or absorb it through the skin. Acute exposure is highly irritating to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract and long-term exposure has been linked to several types of cancer. New research finds that those exposed to formaldehyde on-the-job may also risk fertility problems.

The researcher employed a population-based approach to evaluate use, costs, and outcomes of robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery compared to both traditional laparoscopic surgery and open surgery for common robotic-assisted urological procedures. They found that robotic procedures were safer but cost more.
