Innovations in technology has changed the traditional laparoscopy to be less invasive. Singleport transumbilical laparoscopy has emerged to enhance the cosmetic benefits and to decrease the morbidity of the minimally invasive surgery. It has further minimized the minimally invasive surgery. However, this technique requires a specialized multichannel port (for introducing laparoscope and instruments) which is very costly and in fact, is not affordable by the majority of the population in a developing country like India. We have improvised a single-port access system using readily available materials like surgical gloves, towel ring, inner flexible ring and conventional laparoscopic trocars with no added cost burden to the patient. We have performed 40 single port surgeries using this method without any complications.
技术创新已使传统腹腔镜手术的侵入性降低。单孔经脐腹腔镜手术应运而生,以提高美容效果并降低微创手术的发病率。它进一步将微创手术的创伤减到最小。然而,这项技术需要一个专门的多通道端口(用于插入腹腔镜和器械),其成本非常高,实际上像印度这样的发展中国家的大多数人都负担不起。我们利用手术手套、毛巾环、内部柔性环和传统腹腔镜套管针等现成材料,临时拼凑出了一个单孔接入系统,而不会给患者增加成本负担。我们使用这种方法进行了40例单孔手术,没有出现任何并发症。
