Single-incision laparoscopic colectomy (SILC) shows similar outcomes to multiport laparoscopic colectomy (MLC) but with reduced postoperative pain. Further trials are needed before routine use of SILC.

Area of Science:

Minimally Invasive Surgery
Colorectal Surgery
Surgical Techniques

Background:

Single-incision laparoscopic colectomy (SILC) feasibility is supported by case reports.
Limited comparative studies exist between SILC and multiport laparoscopic colectomy (MLC).

Purpose of the Study:

To compare SILC and MLC outcomes in experienced laparoscopic surgeons.
Evaluate operative time, length of stay, complications, and pain.

Main Methods:

A comparative study of 330 patients (165 SILC, 165 MLC) across 5 institutions.
Patients were matched for demographics, disease, surgery, BMI, and surgeon.
Primary endpoint: length of stay; Secondary endpoints: operative time, conversion rates, complications, pain scores.

Clinical Application of Single-Surgeon, Three-Port, Laparoscopic Resection for Colorectal Cancer with Natural Orifice Specimen Extraction

Published on: March 24, 2023

Main Results:

No significant differences in operative time or length of stay between SILC and MLC.
SILC demonstrated significantly lower postoperative day one pain scores (P=0.005).
Conversion to multiport laparoscopy occurred in 11% of SILC patients; no significant differences in major complications or re-admissions.

Conclusions:

SILC is a feasible option for select patients undergoing colectomy by experienced surgeons.
SILC offers comparable outcomes to MLC, with an advantage in early postoperative pain reduction.
Prospective randomized trials are recommended to validate SILC for routine surgical practice.
