Gain Access

Single-Incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) is a relatively novel technique that employs a single incision to gain access to the peritoneal cavity. Potential advantages over conventional laparoscopy include reduction of port site complications, reduced pain and improved cosmesis. Given that the incidence of surgical site complications in conventional laparoscopic surgery (infection 0.5%, incisional hernia 7.9%, haematoma 6.25%) are all correlated directly with the incisional site, a reduction in the number of incisions has been suggested as a means of improving post-operative morbidity from laparoscopic surgery.
