Objectives To compare suprapubic‐assisted laparoendoscopic single‐site surgery nephrectomy with standard laparoscopic nephrectomy. Methods A retrospective case–control study comparing three surgeons’ experience with 122 suprapubic‐assisted laparoendoscopic single‐site surgery nephrectomy and 107 standard laparoscopic nephrectomy was carried out. Operative time, estimated blood loss, intraoperative complications, intraoperative conversion, postoperative bowel recovery, postoperative analgesics, postoperative visual analog pain scale score, postoperative length of stay, days before going back to work, postoperative complications and Patient Scar Assessment Questionnaire were compared after propensity score matching. Results A total of 97 matched pairs were obtained after propensity score matching. There were no statistically significant differences between the suprapubic‐assisted laparoendoscopic single‐site surgery nephrectomy and standard laparoscopic nephrectomy groups with respect to operative time, estimated blood loss, intraoperative complications, intraoperative conversion, postoperative bowel recovery, length of stay and postoperative complications. Suprapubic‐assisted laparoendoscopic single‐site surgery nephrectomy group had decreased postoperative analgesics (20.9 vs 23.5, P  = 0.04), visual analog pain scale score at 24 h (4.28 vs 5.28, P  = 0.000), visual analog pain scale score at discharge (1.01 vs 1.47, P  = 0.000), days before going back to work (28.4 vs 31.9, P  = 0.000) and Patient Scar Assessment Questionnaire score (34.0 vs 42.0, P  = 0.000), compared with the standard laparoscopic nephrectomy group. Conclusions Suprapubic‐assisted laparoendoscopic single‐site surgery nephrectomy and standard laparoscopic nephrectomy are equivalent in terms of the safety and efficacy. However, suprapubic‐assisted laparoendoscopic single‐site surgery nephrectomy confers less postoperative pain, fewer days before going back to work and better cosmetic result when compared with standard laparoscopic nephrectomy.
