Newer surgery technique: da Vinci SP (single-port robot-assisted)

About one year ago a couple of months before my surgery, my surgeon told me unprompted that they have looked in the single port robot but decided against it.

My doctor said they have both multi-port and single-port. He did not mention Retzius. His comment was that he had over 1,800 operations on multi-port and 200 on single-port, which made me think, "lets go with the one he has most experience with." One other comment he made was that if they are to remove any lymph nodes, he would use multi-port. So, my obvious decision is to know now whether it's the single-port Retzius procedure. Thank you for sharing.

It’s a very substantial investment.
