Single Port Laparoscopy

Single Port Laparoscopy

A single port laparoscopy is a minimally-invasive form of surgery in which the doctor creates only a single small incision, also called a port. Use of a single port makes this method even less invasive than traditional laparoscopic procedures, which typically require the use of one small incision in which to place the laparoscope and several others through which to insert the surgical instruments.

Benefits of Single Port Laparoscopy

All types of laparoscopic procedures generally offer a lower risk of complications and faster recovery period than open forms of surgery do. However, single port laparoscopy has even more advantages, as the creation of only one tiny incision produces very little or no scarring. In addition, the likelihood of developing complications is even lower, the recovery period is a little shorter and less discomfort is experienced than with conventional laparoscopic procedures.

Appropriate Procedures for Single Port Laparoscopy

Single port laparoscopy is not ideal for all surgical procedures because there may be limitations to the amount of movement a surgeon can make when all of the instruments are inserted through one small site. Surgical instruments designed to provide more flexibility are used, but in certain cases it is still better to approach the procedure through the multiple sites offered by a traditional laparoscopy.

Some of the gynecological procedures currently being performed using single port laparoscopy include:

  • Laparoscopic salpingo-oophorectomy, which is a procedure performed to remove one or both of the fallopian tubes and one or both of the ovaries
  • Laparoscopic salpingectomy/cystectomy, which is a procedure performed to remove one of the fallopian tubes as well as an ovarian cyst while preserving the ovary
  • Laparoscopic hysterectomy, which is a procedure performed to remove the uterus and sometimes the ovaries and fallopian tubes as well
