Abstract
Introduction & Objectives: Following its introduction, recent years have seen the increasing utility of the purpose-built Single-Port (SP) robotic platform for varying approaches of robotic radical prostatectomy (RARP). Despite earlier series demonstrating favourable perioperative outcomes, there remains a paucity of evidence highlighting the morbidity of these procedures. Hence, this study sought to evaluate the perioperative complication following different approaches of SP-RARP using a multi-institutional database. Materials & Methods: A retrospective review was performed on the prospectively maintained, Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved Single-Port Advanced Research Consortium (SPARC) database. All patients who underwent transperitoneal (TP), extraperitoneal (EP), and transvesical (TV) SP-RARP by 11 surgeons across 9 centers between 2019 and 2022 were included. The rates and reasons for the 90-day postoperative complication and readmission were analyzed for each surgical approach separately. Results: A total of 1103 patients were identified, which included 244, 712, and 147 patients who had TP, EP, and TV SP-RARP, respectively. Intraoperative complications were reported in five patients (0.4%), all of whom belonged to the TP cohort. Postoperative complications were noted in 143 patients (13%) with the majority being minor complications (Clavien-Dindo grade ≤2). The incidence of non-urological complications were significantly lower in the TV cohort (TP 8.2% vs. EP 6.3% vs. TV 3.4%, p = <0.05). The 90-day readmission rate was 3.9%. [Figure presented] Conclusions: SP-RARP provided a safe and effective addition to the repertoire of minimally-invasive surgical management for prostate cancer with a relatively low risk of 90-day postoperative complication and readmission. The varying surgical approaches were associated with different complication profiles, with markedly reduced non-urological complications following the more localized transvesical access.
