Single site multiport umbilical laparoscopic appendicectomy versus conventional multiport laparoscopic appendicectomy in acute settings

Abstract: The favourable outcomes for the SMULA technique are likely to be due to the three small segregated incisions at one place and better trocar ergonomics. The SMULA technique is safe in an acute setting and may be considered of value among the options for transumbilical appendicectomy.

“…In general, the degree of postoperative pain is mostly caused by trauma to muscles and parietal peritoneum. [21,22] Since no trocar is inserted through the muscle, it is predicted to show lesser pain in patients who undergo SPLA compared to MPLA [18,19,23,24]. Jatenaonkar et al [24] and Kye et al [20] showed that pain scores on day 0 and 1 were signi cantly less in the SPLA group than MPLA, respectively.…”

Jatenaonkar et al [24] and Kye et al [20] showed that pain scores on day 0 and 1 were signi cantly less in the SPLA group than MPLA, respectively. One study reported that pain score and the number of using hydromorphone during 12 hours were lower in SPLA group compared to MPLA group [19].…”

“…In a study that compared conventional multiport laparoscopic appendectomy (CMLA) with single site multiport umbilical laparoscopic appendectomy (SMULA), mean operative times were found to be nearly equal in both groups (43 min). However, cosmetic results were reported to be better in the SMULA group [ 19 ].…”
