ABSTRACT Background: Surgeries with single port access have been gaining ground among surgeons who seek minimally invasive procedures. Although this technique uses only one access, the incision is larger when compared to laparoscopic cholecystectomy and this fact can lead to a higher incidence of incisional hernias. Aim: To compare the incidence of incisional hernia after laparoscopic cholecystectomy and by single port. Methods: A total of 57 patients were randomly divided into two groups and submitted to conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy (n=29) and laparoscopic cholecystectomy by single access (n=28). The patients were followed up and reviewed in a 40.4 month follow-up for identification of incisional hernias. Results: Follow-up showed 21,4% of incisional hernia in single port group and 3.57% in conventional technique. Conclusions: There was a higher incidence of late incisional hernia in patients submitted to single port access cholecystectomy compared to conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Aim: Comparative analysis of cosmetic outcome between Single Incision Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy and conventional Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy. Method:  Patients suffering from symptomatic cholelithasis were randomly subjected to Single Incision Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (SILC) and conventional four ports Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (cLC). Data analyzed included cosmetic outcome, Results: The body image score for SILC group ranged from 30 to 44 with mean score of 40.76 ± 2.773 while that for cLC group ranged from 33 to 42 with mean score of 38.28 ± 1.969. p-value for the comparison stands 0.001 which shows that patients undergoing SILC had better cosmetic perception of their body image compared to cLC group Conclusion: SILC is better cosmetic perception as compare to cLC Keywords: SILC, cLC, Cosmetic outcome
