This article presents the results of the first in-human trial and prospective case series using the Shurui® single-port robotic system (SR-ENS-600) for gynecological surgeries. The study followed IDEAL stage 2a guidelines and involved 10 patients with benign or precancerous conditions requiring laparoscopic surgery. All procedures were successfully completed without conversions, and no major complications were observed during a 90-day follow-up. The study found that the Shurui® system was technically feasible for performing oophorocystectomy, hysteromyomectomy, and hysterectomy, with faster recovery times and high patient satisfaction. However, the study also identified some technical challenges, such as instrument collisions and the need for better traction during certain procedures. The authors concluded that further multicenter studies are necessary to assess the system’s broader applicability in gynecologic robotic surgery.
