All adrenal tumors are benign lesions classified as T1 stage. Tumors were classified into three groups based on their maximum diameter: ≤3 cm (Group A), >3 cm and ≤ 4 cm (Group B), and > 4 cm and ≤ 5 cm (Group C). Based on the surgical approach, patients were divided into single-port single-channel and single-port multi-channel groups. Group A had an average tumor diameter of (2.32 ± 0.45) cm with 46 single-port single-channel and 53 single-port multi-channel cases; Group B had (3.42 ± 0.31) cm with 33 single-port single-channel and 45 single-port multi-channel cases; Group C had (4.60 ± 0.28) cm with 18 single-port single-channel and 23 single-port multi-channel cases.

In Group A, no significant difference was observed between single-channel and multi-channel groups in terms of operation time and blood loss (P > 0.05), but significant differences were found in hospital stay, pain score, subcutaneous emphysema incidence, and incision length (P < 0.05). In Group B, there was no significant difference between single-channel and multi-channel groups regarding operation time and blood loss (P > 0.05), but significant differences were observed in hospital stay, pain score, subcutaneous emphysema incidence, and incision length (P < 0.05).
