Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of transumbilical single port laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods The clinical data of 16 patients who received transumbilical single port laparoscopic cholecystectomy at Xinqiao Hospital from January 2008 to May 2010 were retrospectively analysed. An incision with a length of 1.5 cm was made adjacent to the umbilicus, and then two 5 mm trocars and one 10 mm trocar were installed. After the establishment of pneumoperitoneum, a laparoscopic camera was placed via the 10 mm trocar,and laparoscopic instruments and a 5 mm ultrasonic scalpel were placed via the two 5 mm trocars, respectively.Cholecystectomy was performed in the same manner as for the conventional laparoscopic procedure. Results All the operations were successfully carried out. The operation time was 50-150 minutes. No drainage tube was inserted,and no complications such as bleeding or bile leakage were observed after the operation. Patients recovered well,and no scarring was observed around the umbilicus. Conclusions Transumbilical single-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy is safe and feasible, but it is more difficult than laparoscopic cholecystectomy in terms of manipulation.Transumbilical single-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy has the potential to replace laparoscopic cholecystectomy if the operative instruments are improved.
