Robotic and laparoscopic single-port hysterectomy are both feasible and safe surgical options. Experienced surgeons can achieve similar operative times, minimal blood loss, and quick recovery with both methods.

Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery
  • Surgical Technology Innovation

Background:

  • Single-port surgery offers potential advantages in reducing invasiveness.
  • Evaluating new surgical platforms is crucial for advancing patient care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility and safety of robotic single-port hysterectomy (RSPH) versus laparoscopic single-port hysterectomy (LSPH).
  • To compare perioperative outcomes between RSPH and LSPH.

Main Methods:

  • A comparative study involving 20 patients undergoing RSPH and 25 patients undergoing LSPH.
  • All procedures were successfully completed via a single port without conversion to multi-port or open surgery.

Main Results:

  • Both RSPH and LSPH demonstrated comparable median operative times (90 min), hysterectomy times (57.5 vs. 60 min), and estimated blood loss (40 vs. 50 ml).

  • No operative or post-operative complications were recorded, with a median hospital discharge of one day for both groups.

    • Conclusions:

    • Robotic and laparoscopic single-port systems are feasible and safe for hysterectomy in experienced hands.
    • Further randomized controlled trials are needed to determine the specific benefits of RSPH over conventional laparoscopy.
