Abstract

Since the first laparoscopic appendectomy was performed by Semm in 1983, laparoscopic surgery has become the criterion standard surgical route for treatment of several pathologic conditions across disciplines. Attempts to minimize access-related injuries and complications resulted in development of laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS), which, because of the decreased number of ports used, may be the next generation of minimally invasive surgery. Laparoscopic single-site surgery has been reported in nephrectomy, pyeloplasty, radical prostatectomy, cholecystectomy, and colorectal, bariatric, and gynecologic surgery. This technique may increase the benefits of traditional minimally invasive surgery such as decreased blood loss and postoperative pain, faster recovery time, fewer complications, and better cosmetic results, without increasing costs. Herein, we present a case report of single-port laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy and concomitant cholecystectomy performed with a multi-instrument access port (TriPort; Olympus America Inc., Center Valley, Pennsylvania). Single-port surgery eliminates the problem of multiple and different site placement for accessory ports, typical of these procedures when performed simultaneously at conventional laparoscopy.
