    This systematic review evaluated the safety and impact on ovarian reserve of single-port laparoscopic cystectomy (SLC) for benign ovarian cysts.

  • 2

    Fourteen studies involving 1,691 participants were analyzed, comparing SLC with conventional laparoscopic cystectomy (CLC).

  • 3

    SLC showed no significant differences from CLC in intraoperative complications, postoperative complications, or serum AMH concentration.

  • 4

    SLC was associated with lower postoperative pain scores at 24 hours but had a longer operative time compared to CLC.

  • 5

    The review suggests further large-scale randomized controlled trials are needed to validate the findings regarding SLC.
