Learning Curve Analysis of Single-Site Robot-Assisted Hysterectomy.

ABSTRACT: We aim to analyze the surgical outcomes and learning curve of single-site robot-assisted hysterectomy. This was a retrospective cohort study from a single academic medical center. A total of 123 patients who underwent single-site robotic surgery for gynecologic disease were enrolled. Gynecologic surgeries were performed by a single surgeon using single-site robot-assisted hysterectomy. The median age of enrolled patients was 49 years (range: 30-74 years). The median operation time was 131 min (range: 59-502 min) and the median docking time was 3 min (range: 1-10 min). In addition, the median console time was 76 min (range: 29-465 min). The cumulative sum (CUSUM) graph for total operation time indicated an initial decrease at case 41, generating 3 distinct performance phases: learning (n =
