This video article presents a detailed, stepwise demonstration of single-port (SP) robotic hysterectomy, focusing on the key stages of the procedure following robot docking. The surgical steps highlight the coagulation and division of essential vascular structures, including the uterine arteries and utero-ovarian vessels. Additionally, the video illustrates the sequential handling of key anatomical structures attached to the uterus: the round ligament, fallopian tube, and ovarian ligament. Each structure is meticulously coagulated and divided, demonstrating the precision enabled by SP robotic technology. By showcasing these critical maneuvers in a systematic manner, this article provides an educational resource for gynecologic surgeons seeking to enhance their proficiency in SP robotic hysterectomy, supporting improved efficiency and patient outcomes in minimally invasive gynecologic procedures.
