Abstract

Single-port robotic surgery is emerging in hepatobiliary and pancreatic procedures. Current studies demonstrate safety and feasibility in cholecystectomy, distal pancreatectomy, pancreaticoduodenectomy, and selected liver resections. Although evidence remains limited and indications conservative, ergonomic advantages, stable visualization, and learning-curve improvement suggest expanding applicability as technology and instrumentation mature.
