Abstract:
With the increasing global clinical practice on the da Vinci single port robot platform, numerous researches have confirmed the safety and efficacy of da Vinci single port robot-assisted radical prostatectomy(SP-RARP). Recent researches on SP-RARP have more focused on studies of using different robotic platforms(da Vinci Si, Xi, and SP platforms, for instances), different approaches used in SP-RARP and the comparative result between the multi ports or single port RARP. This article aims to review the existing researches and explores the role and comparative advantages of the da Vinci single port robot platform—a relatively new but less widely used surgical robot platform—in radical prostatectomy, expecting to provide a foundation for possible surgical procedures specifically tailored to this SP platform in future researches.
