Abstract

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic adrenalectomy is the gold standard for adrenal tumor; however, robotic adrenal surgery has gained interest recently. For minimally invasive surgeries, we first reported on robotic adrenalectomy using a single-port access performed using the da Vinci multi-arm robotic system (RA-SA) in 2011. Since its introduction in 2018, we first performed robotic adrenalectomy using the da Vinci SP robotic system in 2020.
