We herein report a 66-year-old female patient who developed an undiagnosed small bowel obstruction without a history of prior abdominal surgery and was successfully treated by single-incision laparoscopic surgery. A small bowel obstruction with unknown cause typically requires some sort of surgical treatment in parallel with a definitive diagnosis. Although open abdominal surgery has been generally performed for the treatment of small bowel obstructions, laparoscopic surgery for small bowel obstructions has been increasing in popularity due to its less invasiveness, including fewer postoperative complications and a shorter hospital stay. As a much less invasive therapeutic strategy, we have performed single-incision laparoscopic surgery for the treatment of an undiagnosed small bowel obstruction. We were able to make a definitive diagnosis after sufficient intra-abdominal inspection and to perform enterotomy through a small umbilical incision. Single-incision laparoscopic surgery appears to be comparable to conventional laparoscopic surgery and provides improved cosmesis, although it is an optional strategy only applicable to selected patients.

Small bowel obstruction after intra-abdominal surgery is a common cause of morbidity necessitating reoperation. The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of and indications for laparoscopic surgery for acute adhesive small bowel obstruction (AASBO). We conducted a retrospective review of all patients with AASBO who underwent laparoscopic adhesiolysis at a major university medical center. Laparoscopic treatment was performed successfully in 16 patients, and conventional treatment was performed in 13 patients. The rate of conversion from laparoscopic to open was 16.7 per cent. In 15 of 16 total patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery, laparoscopic bandlysis was performed and one patient underwent laparoscopic adhesiolysis. Laparoscopic surgery was performed successfully in nine who had a single adhesive band demonstrated on an abdominal CT, and conventional surgery was performed in all 10 patients without a single adhesive band identified radiographically. Abdominal CT scans facilitate the selection of operative approach for AASBO based on preoperative identification of the obstruction site. Laparoscopic adhesiolysis is a safe and effective treatment modality for patients with AASBO with a single band or single transition zone identified by preoperative imaging.
