In this study is demonstrated our experience in single incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILS), compared to standard laparoscopic cholecystectomy. There were 48 single incision laparoscopic cholecystectomies (SILS) performed during one-year period (A group) and results have been compared with a group of 50 patients who underwent standard laparoscopic cholecystectomy (B group). Outcome meas...

OBJECTIVES To report our experience with single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) for cholecystectomy and to perform a retrospective comparison with conventional 4-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS Data were prospectively collected for all patients undergoing SILS for cholecystectomy at St Mary's Hospital, Imperial College NHS Trust, London, England (n = 41 p...

Aim: To describe a new technique in which laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be performed through trocar cannulas inserted directly through the same incision used for the cesarean section, without the need for additional incisions elsewhere. Presentation of Case: A 30-year-old pregnant woman presented with symptomatic cholelithiasis. Laboratory and radiological investigations revealed no signs of...

BACKGROUND Current literature frequently indicates that experienced laparoscopic surgeons can safely perform single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy, but there have been few reports evaluating the feasibility and safety of performing single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy for obese patients. Therefore, a large single-center database was retrospectively reviewed to evaluate the feasib...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Many laparoscopic surgeons are now transitioning from standard multiple-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy to single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) in an attempt to improve cosmetic outcomes and decrease postoperative morbidity. However, little has been published regarding the potential complications of SILS operations. METHODS We report the case of a patient un...

conclusions laparoscopic cholecystectomy as the method of choice in treatment of gallbladder stone is associated with high success rate. this approach is increasingly being performed because of the decrease in patients’ hospital stay, morbidity, and rapid return to normal life. patients and methods this is a retrospective study. medical records of patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystec...

Single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) and natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) have been developed to reduce the invasiveness of laparoscopic surgery. SILS has been frequently applied in various clinical settings, such as cholecystectomy, colectomy, and sleeve gastrectomy. So far, there have been four reports on single incision laparoscopic distal gastrectomy and one re...

The initial pose of the surgical robot and the incision site of the robot arm in laparoscopic cholecystectomy have been be discussed and planned in this system. The arm holding the forceps of da Vinci system could be guided in reference to the virtual laparoscopic camera views of the patient model as in Fig. 1. Once the trocar site is determined, the manipulator makes pivoting motion around the...
