    Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is increasingly used for T1 renal tumors, with single-port techniques gaining popularity.

  • 2

    The PADUA, RENAL, and SPARE nephrometry scores are essential for assessing tumor complexity and predicting surgical outcomes.

  • 3

    This study aims to validate the predictive performance of these nephrometry scores specifically in single-port RAPN.

  • 4

    A cohort of 211 patients was analyzed, focusing on achieving the Trifecta of negative margins, no complications, and low warm ischemia time.

  • 5

    Statistical analyses revealed the discriminative ability of each nephrometry score, aiding in surgical planning and outcome prediction.
