Single-incision robotic assisted surgery: a non-randomized cohort pilot study on a novel surgical platform in colorectal surgery.

SIRAS can be feasibly performed by skilled surgical team via SR-ENS-600 platform for strictly-selected patients, which provides preferable instrument maneuverability and stability in confined surgical fields and overcomes the technical difficulty of multisite dissection through a single incision. Large-volume investigations and high-level evidences are required to further validate its safety and superiority.
