Background:
Single-port robotic cholecystectomy offers minimally invasive benefits. This trial evaluated the feasibility and safety of a novel system, MicroPort SA-1000.
Methods:
In this dual centre, single-arm, prospective study, eligible patients underwent single-port robot-assisted cholecystectomy with MicroPort SA-1000. The primary endpoint was the completion rate, while secondary endpoints included estimated blood loss, operating time, hospital length of stay and complications.
Results:
From June 2023 to December 2023, a total of 44 patients from two centres were enrolled, and all patients underwent single-port robot-assisted cholecystectomy without conversion. The median EBL was 10 mL (range 5-200 mL). The total operative time was 88.43 ± 25.87 minutes. The median LOS was 2.5 days (range 1-7 days). No serious surgery-related adverse events were observed.
Conclusions:
The novel single-port robot demonstrated feasibility and safety in cholecystectomy with effective triangulation, controlled operative time and reduced trauma. Larger studies are needed to validate its performance across different surgical fields.
