This study shows single port robotic assisted retroperitoneal partial nephrectomy (SPRA-PN) is feasible in Europe. The technique offers potential benefits with high patient satisfaction and low post-operative pain.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Robotic Surgery

Background:

  • Single port robotic assisted retroperitoneal partial nephrectomy (SPRA-PN) is an emerging minimally invasive surgical technique.
  • This study presents the first European case series of SPRA-PN.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the initial European experience with SPRA-PN.
  • To evaluate patient outcomes and potential benefits of this novel approach.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective study of patients undergoing SPRA-PN using the da Vinci Xi® system.
  • Data collected on demographics, operative details, complications, and post-operative outcomes.
  • Cosmetic satisfaction assessed via the Patient Scar Assessment Questionnaire.

Main Results:

  • Technical success achieved in all 10 cases with no conversions.
  • Mean console time: 84.2 min; mean ischemia time: 19.5 min.
  • Low post-operative pain (VAS 2.5 at 48h) and high cosmetic satisfaction reported.

Conclusions:

  • SPRA-PN using the da Vinci Xi platform is feasible in Europe.
  • The technique shows potential benefits, including good patient outcomes.
  • Further research is needed to assess long-term results and applicability.
