Single-incision laparoscopic colectomy: outcomes of an emerging minimally invasive technique

Abstract: Single-incision laparoscopic colectomy is a safe and feasible procedure for benign and malignant diseases of the colon. This modality can be successfully applied for various colorectal procedures without conversion to open surgery, resulting in a short length of hospital stay and a minimal short-term complication rate.

“…The conversion rate of 10% is in line with other SILS series, which trend in the 4% to 9% range 12,13 ; less than that in some laparoscopic inflammatory bowel series 14 ; and not different from the conversion rate in the multiport cohort. No cases were converted to multiport laparoscopy, which may suggest that if a case can be accomplished with multiport laparoscopy, it can be accomplished with single-incision laparoscopy.…”

“…Single-incision technique was considered for all patients during the study period unless they (1) had an American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) score of 4 or 5, (2) required emergency surgery for a pressing medical condition, or (3) presented with middle or lower rectal disease, large bulky malignant disease, or complicated benign disease (fistula, obstruction) [18]. Of the 77 cases, 53 did not involve resection of the sigmoid; these included colostomy creation (n = 1) and takedown (n = 1), transverse colectomy (n = 1), left colectomy (n = 1), total colectomy (n = 8), and right hemicolectomy (n = 41).…”

“…Case series and nonrandomized comparisons between SPA technique and CLS for colon cancer have demonstrated the safety and feasibility of the procedure with similar outcomes as in CLS (17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22). Only a few reports on SPA in rectal surgery have been published to date (10-12, 23, 24).…”
