Purpose: Single-port laparoscopic surgery (SPLS) has recently emerged as a method to improve the morbidity and cosmetic benefit of conventional laparoscopic surgery. We describe our experience of SPLS for an anterior resection (AR). The results of a prospective series of single-port laparoscopic anterior resection procedures are presented.
Methods: Anterior resections were performed on 16 cases using a single-port laparoscopic technique between March 2009 and March 2010. The surgical and oncologic outcomes were recorded on a prospective database.
Results: Sixteen (8 women) unselected patients (eight males, eight females), aged 43∼82 years (median 66.5 years), underwent a SPLS anterior resection for sigmoid colon cancers (median 16 cm above AV, range 13∼27). All patients were alive at 30 days. The surgery time ranged from 150∼415 min (median 242 min) and the median wound incision lengthwas 2.4 cm (range 1.5∼4.0 cm). The median hospital stay was 7.5 days. Pathological reports from the resected specimens revealed adenocarcinoma in 15 patients and mucinous carcinoma in one. There was one case of an anastomotic leak that required reanastomosis. The median number of lymph nodes harvested was 27.5 (range 10∼56).
Conclusion: SPLS is a possible approach to an anterior resection with the potential for minimal access. A SPLS anterior resection is feasible and safe when performed by an experienced laparoscopic surgeon and team. On the other hand, the technique and oncologic safety warrants further prospective randomized studies.
