Single-access laparoscopic surgery (SALS), performed using a single transumbilical access, has recently proved to bring advantages over other forms of laparoscopic surgery due to the reduction in the number of incisions and the consequent decrease in morbidity, less blood loss and postoperative pain. Furthermore, cosmesis may be improved because incision within the umbilicus renders surgery virtually scarless. Nevertheless, as with all new surgical concepts, questions may be raised regarding safety, usefulness and appropriateness. This book analyzes the use of SALS for different indications and abdominal surgical procedures based on a careful literature review of the experience of the most important surgical teams employing this approach and also the authors’ personal observations. The coverage is broad, encompassing, for example, the role of SALS in appendectomy, repair of abdominal wall defects, cholecystectomy, gastric surgery, nephrectomy, splenectomy, hemicolectomy and pancreatic, liver and gynecological surgery.

The main purpose of this book is to address some important issues related to gynecologic laparoscopy. Since the early breakthroughs by its pioneers, laparoscopic gynecologic surgery has gained popularity due to developments in illumination and instrumentation that led to the emergence of laparoscopy in the late 1980's as a credible diagnostic as well as therapeutic intervention. This book is unique in that it will review common, useful information about certain laparoscopic procedures, including technique and instruments, and then discuss common difficulties faced during each operation. We also discuss the uncommon and occasionally even anecdotal cases and the safest ways to deal with them. We are honored to have had a group of world experts in laparoscopic gynecologic surgery valuably contribute to our book.

Single port laparoscopy, also known as laparo-endoscopic single-site surgery (LESS), is a minimally invasive procedure in which a surgeon operates almost exclusively through a single entry point, typically the patient’s navel. Compared with traditional multi-port laparoscopic techniques, benefits of this procedure include less postoperative pain, less blood loss, faster recovery time, and better cosmetic results. This book is a guide to single port laparoscopic surgery for practising gynaecological surgeons. Divided into three sections, it begins with the basic principles, instruments and techniques. The second section provides in depth coverage of LESS for various gynaecological conditions including ectopic pregnancy, hysterectomy and in gynaecological oncology. The final part of the book discusses recent advances in LESS, examining robotic-assisted surgery and newer trends. Tips and Tricks for beginners are also included. Key points Guide to single port laparoscopic surgery for practising surgeons Covers instruments and techniques and surgery for numerous gynaecological disorders Final section examines recent advances and future developments Includes nearly 300 images, illustrations and tables
