Just because something is new doesn't mean it's better. A surgeon with 50+ multi-port cases/ year for more than 5 years is probably a very good bet. Sometimes equipment manufacturers are bringing out new stuff to make a buck, and some doctors like to play around with new toys. Best not to be an early adopter.

I had multi-port RALP 3+ months ago with no pain after leaving the recovery room, no narcotics @ home, walking the afternoon of surgery. I don't know anything about single port, but have trouble (as a retired surgeon who did laparoscopies for 40 years) envisioning why it would be "better" than multi-port.
