Single-incision Laparoscopic Right Hemicolectomy: Safety and Feasibility in a Series of 10 Consecutive Cases
Objective: Single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) is rapidly emerging in the field of minimally invasive colon and rectal surgery. We present the feasibility and safety of single-incision laparoscopic right hemicolectomy (SILS-RH) with a modified technique using the SILSTM Multiple Instrument Access Port (Covidien, Mansfield, MA). Methods and Procedure: Between July 2009 and October 2009, single-incision laparoscopic… Continue Reading

Single Incision Laparoscopic Splenectomy: A Case Series Comparison to Laparoscopic Splenectomy
Introduction: Laparoscopic splenectomy is currently considered the gold standard in elective splenectomy. This study evaluates the safety, efficiency and efficacy of single incision laparoscopic (SIL) splenectomy as compared with the gold standard. It is our belief that SIL splenectomy is an improved technique with one hidden umbilical incision that permits concomitant organ removal without the… Continue Reading

Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery: One Surgeon\’s Experience
Objective: To describe a single surgeon’s experience with single incision laparoscopic surgery ( SILS) including cholecystectomy, appendectomy, right(Rt) colectomy and lysis of adhesions (LOA). The primary goal of SILS is to minimize or eliminate visible scarring by using a single umbilical incision. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that SILS outcome is comparable… Continue Reading

Single-incision Versus Conventional Laparoscopic Appendicectomy: A Comparative Study
Introduction: The aim of this study was to compare the results of single-incision laparoscopic appendicectomy (SILA) with conventional three-ports laparoscopic appendicectomy (LA) for uncomplicated appendicitis. Methods: From March 2009 to August 2009, all cases of uncomplicated appendicitis (i.e. no perforation, no abscess formation) that had undergone either SILA or LA were included in this study.… Continue Reading

Single Port Access Cholecystectomy: Short-term Outcomes
ObjectiveSingle incision laparoscopic surgery is a new advance wherein laparoscopic surgery is carried out through a single small incision hidden in the umbilicus. Advantages of this technique over standard laparoscopy are still under investigation. The objective of this study is to describe the short term outcomes of single port access(SPATM) cholecystectomy in a single community… Continue Reading

Single Port Access Surgery: Evaluation of Access Platforms, Versatility and Fascial Defects
The emergence and early application of reduced port laparoscopy requires comparison to current accepted safe standards of multiport laparoscopy (MPL). Evaluation of single port access platforms with attention to ease of use and limitations is necessary. These new techniques introduce increased size (5- 20mm) or number (1-4) of fascial defects at a single access point.… Continue Reading

Single Port Cholecystectomy: Small Scar, Short Learning Curve
Introduction: This past year has born witness to the acceptance of single port laparoscopic surgery into mainstream clinical practice. Reports of surgeons' early experience with single port laparoscopic cholecystectomy suggests the procedure is a technically feasible, safe and cosmetically superior alternative to the traditional 4-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy. To date, however, there has not been a… Continue Reading

Single Port Endo-laparoscopic Surgery (spes) for Multiple Procedures
Single port endo-laparoscopic surgery (SPES) is gaining enthusiasm in the surgical community due to its perceived better outcome of pain and cosmesis. The advantages are further extrapolated by achieving multiple operations with a single incision. The feasibility and safety of SPES in double procedures is assessed. Case 1: A 56 year old male with a… Continue Reading

Single Port Laparoscopic Surgery for Gastric Submucosal Tumor Using Octo(tm) Port
Introduction: Single port laparoscopic surgery (SPLS) has been reported as an advanced laparoscopic approach and become hot issue. SPLS is expected offering potential benefits of improved cosmesis and decreased postoperative pain. There are few reports about SPLS for gastric tumors. We used a novel multichannel single port device (OCTOTM, dalimSurgNET, Seoul, South Korea) and succeeded… Continue Reading

Single Port Laparoscopic Surgery Under Abdominal Wall Lifting (lift-sps) for Appendectomy, Hernia Repair, Cholecystectomy
[Introduction] Pneumoperitoneum creates a sufficient workspace,but we have many disadvantage about crowding and clashing of instruments and air-tight trocars in Single Port Laparoscopic Surgery (SPS). For the purpose of avoiding difficulties concerning about pneumoperitneum, we developed SPS under abdominal wall lifting method. We performed single port laparoscopic appendectomy, hernia repair, cholecystectomy under abdominal wall lifting… Continue Reading

Single Site Wireless Laparoscopy in Animal Model
This video shows a single port wireless laparoscopy. In order to reduce the number of instruments.The image quality is not bad but needs to be improved if it is to become a realistic substitute for flexible laparoscopy. Remote control movement will improve with the use of magnets and/or electrostimulation and perhaps electromechanical methods.External wireless commands… Continue Reading

Sleeve Gastrectomy for the Treatment of Diabetic Gastroparesis
Objective: Diabetic gastroparesis often fails to respond to medical management. We present our initial experience with sleeve gastrectomy for the treatment of gastroparesis. Surgical treatment of gastroparesis with gastric pacing has shown some promise, but when this option fails, subtotal gastrectomy is often the end result. Evidence evaluating the efficacy of this is weak. Sleeve… Continue Reading

Staged Laparoscopic Adjuvant Intraperitoneal Chemohyperthermia (ipch) After Complete Resection for Locally Advanced Colorectal or Gastric Cancer
Purpose: Cytoreductive surgery followed by intraperitoneal chemohyperthermia (IPCH) is a promising treatment for patients with peritoneal malignancies. Usually, IPCH is performed concomitantly with cytoreductive surgery for peritoneal cancinomatosis (PC) or more occasionally as an adjuvant treatment after gastric resection for cancer. In this report, we describe our experience with staged adjuvant laparoscopic IPCH after complete… Continue Reading
