Comparative study demonstrates equivalent outcomes in colorectal cancer surgery, suggesting single-port robots are safe but may increase operative time.
The novel single-port robotic systems are safe and feasible for radical colorectal cancer surgery. They achieve short-term outcomes comparable to the da Vinci Xi system, with the advantages of a shorter hospitalization and better cosmetic outcomes but at the expense of a longer operative time.
