Single-access laparoscopic surgery (SALS), performed using a single
transumbilical access, has recently proved to bring advantages over
other forms of laparoscopic surgery due to the reduction in the
number of incisions and the consequent decrease in morbidity, less
blood loss and postoperative pain. Furthermore, cosmesis may be
improved because incision within the umbilicus renders surgery
virtually scarless. Nevertheless, as with all new surgical
concepts, questions may be raised regarding safety, usefulness and
appropriateness. This book analyzes the use of SALS for different
indications and abdominal surgical procedures based on a careful
literature review of the experience of the most important surgical
teams employing this approach and also the authors' personal
observations. The coverage is broad, encompassing, for example, the
role of SALS in appendectomy, repair of abdominal wall defects,
cholecystectomy, gastric surgery, nephrectomy, splenectomy,
hemicolectomy and pancreatic, liver and gynecological surgery.
