Clinical status and future prospects of single-incision robotic assisted surgery (SIRAS): A review.

ABSTRACT: Since the advent of conventional multiport laparoscopic surgery, the prosperity of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has been thriving on the advancement of endoscopic techniques. Cosmetic superiority, recovery benefits and non-inferior surgical outcomes weigh single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) as a promising modality. Although there are surgical challenges posed by steep learning curve and technological difficulties, such as instruments collision, triangulation loss and limited retraction, the establishment of robotic surgical platform as a solution to all is inspiring. Furthermore, with enhanced instrument maneuverability and stability, robotic ergonomic innovations adopt the advantages of SILS and surmount its recognized barriers by introducing a novel combination, single-incisi
