Abstract
In this review, we aim to provide readers with a balanced understanding of all aspects of single incision robotic cystectomy (SIRC) and urinary diversion using the single-port (SP) robot. The review will trace the historical progression from open surgery to the introduction of minimally invasive approaches and present an in-depth description of the SIRC technique, offering a step-by-step guide for reference. Emphasis will be placed on indications and patient selection criteria to equip surgeons with well-rounded insights for decision-making. The review analyzes preliminary surgical outcomes by drawing from existing literature and clinical experiences, endeavoring to present a balanced view of the potential benefits and limitations. Addressing the learning curve and training prerequisites is paramount, and this review explores strategies and challenges in preparing surgeons for proficiency. Finally, the focus shifts to current challenges and future directions, identifying key issues and potential advancements in the field. By presenting historical context, technical insights, clinical evidence, and strategic foresight, the review aims to provide a comprehensive resource that engages surgeons, researchers, and trainees from diverse perspectives.
