Structured education in Single-Port robotic systems, access strategies, instrumentation and procedure-specific techniques.
The course focuses on the differences between Single-Port and conventional Multiport surgery, including access, instrument deployment, internal triangulation, camera control, retraction, bedside assistance and operating room workflow.
Dedicated SP system education

A Single-Port robotic surgery course is a platform-specific educational program focused on performing robotic procedures through a single primary access point using a dedicated Single-Port robotic system.
The curriculum can include system orientation, patient and procedure selection, access planning, port placement, instrument deployment, camera positioning, internal triangulation, bedside assistance, troubleshooting, suturing and procedure-specific techniques.
Previous Multiport experience can be helpful but is not necessarily required for introductory courses. Advanced Single-Port courses may require previous robotic console, simulation, dry lab or clinical experience.
The platform changes access planning, camera behavior, triangulation, retraction, bedside assistance and internal working-space strategy.
Participants should understand how the Single-Port system differs from the robotic platform used at their own institution.
Procedure type, anatomy, body habitus, previous surgery/radiotherapy, tumor characteristics, need for wide retraction, reconstruction requirements, surgeon experience and possible conversion.
Transperitoneal, extraperitoneal, retroperitoneal, transvesical and other procedure-specific approaches may be compared according to target anatomy and working-space needs.
Incision-site selection, access-device placement, working-space establishment, system alignment, assistant access, external-interference avoidance and extraction planning.
Insertion, internal articulation, deployment sequence, instrument identification, internal collision avoidance, camera position, target distance and instrument exchange.
Establish separation inside the body, coordinate camera and instruments, maintain working angles, avoid crowding and adapt configuration through different procedural stages.
Flexible camera articulation, visual orientation, angle selection, obstruction avoidance, working distance, active-tip visibility and reorientation after major camera movement.
Bimanual control, instrument identification, movement in confined spaces, transfer tasks, traction/countertraction, needle transfer, precision cutting and collision avoidance.
Dynamic retraction, robotic instruments, tissue suspension, positioning adjustments, bedside assistance, internal retraction and procedure-specific exposure.
Assistant access can be more limited than in Multiport surgery and therefore requires deliberate planning.
Suturing within a confined single-access workspace is a distinct technical skill and can be a major practical component of the course.
Access, pelvic exposure, bladder neck, posterior dissection, nerve-sparing, apical dissection, posterior reconstruction, anastomosis and lymphadenectomy.
Transperitoneal/retroperitoneal access, renal exposure, hilar dissection, ultrasound, retraction, tumor excision, collecting-system repair and renorrhaphy.
Patient selection, transvesical access, adenoma identification, enucleation, hemostasis, bladder-neck reconstruction and confined-space closure.
Pyeloplasty, ureteral reconstruction, reimplantation, anastomosis, bladder reconstruction and advanced intracorporeal suturing.
Camera navigation, instrument deployment, internal triangulation, object transfer, bimanual coordination, instrument crossing, needle handling, suturing and confined-space exercises.
Suture pads, synthetic tissue, silicone models, pelvic anastomosis, kidney and tubular reconstruction models for coordination, cutting, suturing and reconstruction.
Where available: tissue handling, traction, dissection, energy application, suturing, anastomosis and reconstruction. Advanced laboratory formats remain subject to institutional requirements.
Hands-on participation takes place in a non-clinical environment using approved simulation or laboratory platforms. Participants do not operate on patients.
Platform orientation, patient selection, access strategies, procedure planning, surgical videos, technical variations and complication management.
Platform-specific camera and instrument control.
Suturing, reconstruction and procedure-specific models.
Theory, video, simulation, dry lab and selected tissue-based or approved advanced laboratory education.
The exact curriculum should be stated on the scheduled course page.
Platform orientation, lectures, surgical videos and selected simulation exercises.
Theoretical education combined with simulation and dry lab training.
Procedure-specific education, repeated practical exercises and faculty feedback.
Platform orientation, simulation, dry lab training, selected tissue-based activities and clinical observation where separately arranged.
System orientation, instrument deployment, camera navigation, internal triangulation, basic coordination and introductory suturing.
Retraction, advanced coordination, suturing, anastomosis, procedure-specific exercises and bedside workflow.
Complex procedures, reconstructive techniques, platform transition, challenging anatomy, troubleshooting and complication management.
Surgeons planning to use both systems may consider a comparative or combined pathway.
International participants should review course language, participant level, previous experience requirements, Single-Port platform access, practical components, dates and included services.
A certificate of participation or attendance may be provided.
Review confirmed course dates, venue, faculty, participant level, robotic platform, curriculum and practical activities.
The scheduled course should clearly identify the available robotic platform.
Named faculty and intended participant experience.
Simulation, dry lab, models and console-sharing arrangements should be explicit.
