Initial Outcomes and Methodologies of a Novel Single-Port Robotic Surgery in Gynecology.

Background And Objectives: The study aims to elucidate the initial results and methodologies employed in utilizing a recently introduced single-port (SP) robotic surgical system for the management for benign and malignant gynecological disorders.

Methods: A total of 33 patients with benign or malignant gynecologic conditions between 2022 and 2024 were included, all patients underwent SP robotic surgery.

Results: A total of 33 patients were successfully enrolled. The study participants demonstrated a mean age of 43.9 ± 11.9 years, a mean body mass index of 21.9 ± 3.0 kg/m, a mean operating time of 105.5 ± 52.4 minutes, and a mean estimated blood loss of 34.6 ± 30.5 mL. There were no cases of conversion to multiport laparoscopy or laparotomy, and only 1 patient developed postoperative fever. The postoperative pain score fell within an acceptable range, and satisfactory scar healing was seen in all cases.

Conclusions: The practicality and safety of the EDGE SP1000 system have been demonstrated in a subset of patients. However, more study and specific surgical skills are required to completely comprehend the benefits and long-term outcomes of robotic surgical systems.
