Background The aim of this study was to compare the surgical outcomes of robotic single‐site (RSS) and laparo‐endoscopic single‐site (LESS) surgery for adnexal tumours and evaluate the feasibility of RSS surgery. Methods RSS surgery was performed using the da Vinci Single‐Site® surgical platform and LESS surgery using a single multi‐channel port system. Surgical outcomes were compared between RSS ( n = 20) and LESS ( n = 228) after 1:4 propensity score matching. Results After the propensity score matching, the RSS group showed longer operating times than the LESS (91.1 vs 66.1 min; p = 0.001). While the LESS showed 1.3% of major complication rates, the RSS group had no perioperative complication. For the LESS, 2.5% of patients needed additional port insertion. Conclusions The RSS surgery for adnexal tumours could be performed safely without complications or additional port insertion. Although it showed a longer operating time, further experience and technical refinements will continue to improve operative results. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
