Area of Science:

Minimally invasive gynecological surgery
Surgical techniques in obstetrics and gynecology

Background:

Laparoscopic myomectomy is a standard treatment for uterine leiomyomas (fibroids).
Single-incision laparoscopy (SIL) presents technical challenges, limiting its widespread adoption in gynecology.
Intracorporeal suturing is a key skill in laparoscopic myomectomy, becoming more difficult with SIL.

Purpose of the Study:

To describe a surgeon's specific approach to performing single-incision laparoscopic myomectomy.
To address the technical difficulties associated with SIL myomectomy, especially intracorporeal suturing.

Main Methods:

Description of a surgeon's technique for single-incision laparoscopic myomectomy.
Focus on the management of intracorporeal suturing within the single-incision framework.

Main Results:

The article presents a feasible surgical approach for SIL myomectomy.
Highlights strategies to manage the complexities of intracorporeal suturing in this technique.

Conclusions:

Single-incision laparoscopic myomectomy is achievable with a tailored surgical approach.
Further development and dissemination of techniques are needed to overcome SIL challenges in myomectomy.
