Background:
The da Vinci single-port (SP) platform is emerging as the latest innovation in minimally invasive surgery and its utilization in treating urologic malignancies continues to expand.
Methods:
A search was conducted in PubMed, MEDLINE, and ScienceDirect. The final set includes 40 academic articles.
Results:
Research on single-port surgery for genitourinary cancer is still an emerging topic. We divided the topic into the following categories: radical prostatectomy, radical cystectomy, nephrectomy, and nephroureterectomy.
Conclusions:
The single-port platform provides urologists with another tool to tackle more complex surgical cases and pathologies with the added improvements of decreased length of stay and increased pain tolerance for patients.
