Abstract
Partial nephrectomy (PN) represents a procedure where the use of a robot has further enabled successful completion of this complex surgery. The results of this procedure using Versius Robotic Surgical System (VRSS) still need to be evaluated. Our working group described the technique and reported the initial results of a series of PN using VRSS. We presented our setting, surgical technique and outcomes for PN, using VRSS. Between 2022 and 2023, 15 patients underwent PN performed by two surgeons in two different centers. Fifteen patients underwent PN. The median lesion size identified on preoperative imaging was 4 (IQR 2.3-5) cm. Median PADUA score was 8 (IQR 7-9). Two procedures were converted to radical nephrectomy for enhanced oncological disease control. Of the 13 nephrectomies that were completed as partial, 7 were performed clampless and 6 with warm ischemia clamping. Median clamping time was 10 (IQR 9-11) minutes. No procedure was converted to open. Median blood loss was 200 (IQR 100-250) mL. Median total operative time was 105 (IQR 100-110) minutes. Median console time was 75 (IQR 66-80) minutes. Median set-up time was 13 (IQR 12-14) minutes. No intraoperative complications were reported. The median hospitalization time was 4 (IQR 3.5-4) days. None of the patients were transfused and none of the patients required readmission. In a pathology report, one patient had a positive surgical margin. Our initial experience suggests that performing PN using VRSS is feasible with good short-term outcomes.

Abstract
Since the advent of conventional multiport laparoscopic surgery, the prosperity of minimally invasive surgery has been thriving on the advancement of endoscopic techniques. Cosmetic superiority, recovery benefits, and noninferior surgical outcomes weigh single-incision laparoscopic surgery as a promising modality. Although there are surgical challenges posed by steep learning curve and technological difficulties, such as instruments collision, triangulation loss and limited retraction, the establishment of robotic surgical platform as a solution to all is inspiring. Furthermore, with enhanced instrument maneuverability and stability, robotic ergonomic innovations adopt the advantages of single-incision laparoscopic surgery and surmount its recognized barriers by introducing a novel combination, single-incision robotic-assisted surgery. As was gradually diffused in general surgery and other specialties, single-incision robotic-assisted surgery manifests privileges in noninferior clinical outcomes an satisfactory cosmetic effect among strictly selected patients, and has the potential of a preferable surgical option for minimally invasive surgery.

Single-port vs multi-port robot-assisted renal surgery: analysis of perioperative outcomes for excision of high and low complexity renal masses. J Robot Surg 2023; 17:2149-2155.

Abstract
There is emerging but limited data assessing single-port (SP) robot-assisted surgery as an alternative to multi-port (MP) platforms. We compared perioperative outcomes between SP and MP robot-assisted approaches for excision of high and low complexity renal masses. Retrospective chart review was performed for patients undergoing robot-assisted partial or radical nephrectomy using the SP surgical system (n = 23) at our institution between November 2019 and November 2021. Renal masses were categorized as high complexity (7+) or low complexity (4-6) using the R.E.N.A.L. nephrometry scoring system. Adjusting for baseline characteristics, patients were matched using a prospectively maintained MP database in a 2:1 (MP:SP) ratio. For high complexity tumors (n = 12), SP surgery was associated with a significantly longer operative time compared to MP (248.4 vs 188.1 min, p = 0.02) but a significantly shorter length of stay (1.9 vs 2.8 days, p = 0.02). For low complexity tumors (n = 11), operative time (177.7 vs 161.4 min, p = 0.53), estimated blood loss (69.6.0 vs 142.0 mL, p = 0.62), and length of stay (1.6 vs 1.8 days, p = 0.528) were comparable between SP and MP approaches. Increasing nephrometry score was associated with a greater relative increase in operative time for SP compared to MP renal surgery (p = 0.07) using best of fit linear modeling. SP robot-assisted partial and radical nephrectomy is safe and feasible for low complexity renal masses. For high complexity renal masses, the SP system is associated with a significantly longer operative time compared to the MP technique. Careful consideration should be given when selecting patients for SP robot-assisted kidney surgery.

Abstract
Single-port (SP) robotic surgery is a novel technology and is at the beginning of its adoption curve in urology. The goal of this narrative review is to provide an overview of SP-robotic partial nephrectomy (PN) 4 years after the introduction of the da Vinci SP dedicated platform, focusing on perioperative outcomes, length of stay, and surgical technique. A nonsystematic review of the literature was conducted. The research included the most updated articles that referred to SP robotic PN. Since its commercial release in 2018, several institutions have reproduced robotic PN by using the SP platform, both via a transperitoneal and a retroperitoneal approach. The published SP-robotic PN series are generally based on preliminary experiences by surgeons who had previous experience with conventional multi-arms robotic platforms. The reported outcomes are encouraging. Overall, three studies reported that SP-robotic PN cases had nonsignificantly different operative time, estimated blood loss, overall complications rate, and length of stay compared to the conventional 'multi-arms' robotic PN. However, in all these series, renal masses treated by SP had overall lower complexity. Moreover, two studies underlined decreased postoperative pain as a major pro of adopting the SP system. This should reduce/avoid the need for opioids after surgery. No study compared SP-robotic versus multi-arms robotic PN in cost-effectiveness. Published experience with SP-robotic PN has reported the feasibility and safety of the approach. Preliminary results are encouraging and at least noninferior with respect to those from the multi-arms series. Prospective comparative studies with long-term oncologic and functional results are awaited to draw more definitive conclusions and better establish the more appropriate indications of SP robotics in the field of PN.

Abstract
Purpose: Single-port (SP) robotic surgery is a new technology and early in its adoption curve. The goal of this study is to compare the perioperative outcomes of SP to multi-port (MP) robotic technology for partial nephrectomy. Materials and Methods: This is a prospective cohort study of patients who have undergone robot-assisted partial nephrectomy using SP and MP technology. Baseline demographic, clinical, and tumor-specific characteristics and perioperative outcomes were compared using χ2, t-test, and Mann-Whitney U test in the overall cohort and in a 1:1 propensity score-matched cohort, adjusting for baseline characteristics. Results: After propensity matching, 146 SP patients were matched with 146 MP patients. SP and MP groups had similar mean age (58 ± 12 years vs 59 ± 12 years; p = 0.606) and proportion of men (54.11% vs 52.05%; p = 0.725). The SP had a longer mean ischemia (18.29 ± 10.49 minutes vs 13.79 ± 6.29 minutes; p < 0.001). Estimated blood loss (EBL) and length of hospital stay (LOS), operative time, positive margin rate, and any complication rate were similar between the two groups. Conclusions: SP partial nephrectomy had a longer ischemia time, and a comparable LOS, EBL, operative time, positive margin rates, and complication rates to MP. These early data are encouraging. However, the role of SP requires further study and should evaluate safety and long-term data when compared with the standard MP technique.

Abstract
Objective: To report early institutional experience with the single-port robotic platform and compare perioperative outcomes between single-port robot-assisted partial nephrectomies (SP-RAPN) and multiport robot-assisted partial nephrectomies (MP-RAPN) when utilizing a retroperitoneal approach. Methods: A retrospective chart review of patients who underwent SP-RAPN or MP-RAPN at our institution between November 1, 2013 and May 30, 2021 was performed. Surgical platforms were compared through univariate analysis using the Kruskal-Wallis test for continuous variables and χ2 test for categorical variables. Results: A total of 20 SP-RAPN and 42 MP-RAPN were performed utilizing a retroperitoneal approach. Patients who underwent SP-RAPN were more likely to have a lower radius, endophytic/exophytic, nearness, anterior/posterior, location score (4 vs 6; p = 0.0084) and their masses tended to be more exophytic, although this was not statistically significant (p = 0.0535). Patients undergoing SP-RAPN had a shorter postoperative length of hospital stay (1 vs 2 days; p < 0.0001). There were no significant differences in operative time, estimated blood loss, ischemia time, positive margin rate, malignant histology, postoperative complication rate, or Clavien-Dindo complication grade. Conclusion: Retroperitoneal SP-RAPN appear to be safe without compromising perioperative outcomes when compared with MP-RAPN for low-complexity renal masses. Further studies are recommended to assess the role of the SP for higher-complexity renal masses and to characterize variables that influence the observed difference in length of hospital stay.

Abstract
PurposeStudies of single-port robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) using the da Vinci SP system, which uses a smaller surgical incision than the conventional multiport robot, have yet to be reported because of its smaller operating range. We report our initial experience using the da Vinci SP system in thoracic surgery for the resection of mediastinal tumors that requires a smaller workspace.DescriptionTwo patients diagnosed with superior mediastinal tumors underwent RATS performed with the da Vinci SP surgical system in January 2022. We used three-dimensional reconstruction to preoperatively determine the surgical incision. This is the first report of single-port RATS using the SP system in China.EvaluationR0 resection was achieved in both operations without complications. Operation times and bleeding volumes were similar to the use of multiport RATS. No perioperative complications occurred.ConclusionsThe da Vinci SP system can be used for the resection of superior mediastinal tumors. Case selection and preoperative planning should be performed prior to these surgeries.
