Techniques that attempt to further reduce the morbidity and improve cosmesis of laparoscopic surgery have particularly generated interest. Since its initial urologic description in 2007, there has been a surge of interest in laparoendoscopic single-site surgery, which is now an emerging technique within the field of minimally invasive urologic surgery. This report describes a preliminary experience with single-site video endoscopic inguinal lymphadenectomy (SSVEIL) compared with conventional video endoscopic inguinal lymphadenectomy (VEIL) on inguinal nodes management in a 45-year-old man with pT(2) grade 2 squamous cell penile carcinoma and impalpable inguinal nodes. VEIL with saphenous vein preservation in the left leg and SSVEIL on the other side presented no difference concerning operative time (100 vs 120 min), blood loss (50 mL), drainage volume, number of nodes retrieved (8), pain, and oncologic outcome. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course, was discharged 12 hours after the procedure, and preferred the aesthetic result of SSVEIL. Further refinements in technology will likely alleviate many of the persistent technical problems. Additional rigorous comparison studies are needed to evaluate the true benefits of the technique and the extent of its clinical application, mainly oncologic results, before the widespread adoption of SSVEIL. Ultimately, advance breakthroughs in fields of in-vivo instrumentation, robotics, and purpose-built robotic platforms will bring its potential to full clinical realization.
