The field of robotic surgery continues to evolve and the advent of the single-port (SP) platform is another step toward the future. The SP platform is a new technology that has promising implications for urologic surgery. Since the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared this platform in 2018, multiple urologic procedures have been described, with radical prostatectomy being the most common. This article aims to describe and illustrate the step-by-step technique of SP radical prostatectomy. We have described our technique from the patient positioning and trocar placement until the anastomosis. We included in the video compilation surgical steps such as bladder dropping and anterior bladder neck dissection, posterior bladder neck and seminal vesicles, posterior prostate dissection and nerve sparing, apical dissection and dorsal venous complex control, posterior reconstruction and anastomosis, and lymph node dissection.
