All patients received standardized prophylactic antibiotic treatment as a single dose of cefotaxime or cefuroxime and metronidazole intravenously before the skin incision. In all multiport operations the first 10 mm trocar was placed at the umbilicus. The 10–15 mm long skin incision was made subumbilical or on the left side or directly through the umbilicus depending on the shape of the navel. Pneumoperitoneum was achieved by using the Veress needle. The multiport cholecystectomy and appendectomy were 3-port procedures with two additional 5 mm trocars. The single-port operations were mainly performed using a commercial port system (TriPort™ or TriPort + ™; Olympus, Japan or SILS™ Port, Medtronic, USA). The single umbilical skin and fascial incisions had a length of 15–20 mm and was made at the same position as described above. In all operations the facial incisions with a length of ≥ 10 mm were closed using a slowly absorbable suture size 0. Subcutaneaus sutures were placed depending on the hight of the layer using a resorbable 3–0 suture and the skin was closed using a resorbable suture size 4–0.

The umbilicus was grasped, and a 2 cm vertical skin and fascial incision was performed. A multiport (TriPort + Olympus®) was inserted under direct vision and a pneumoperitoneum was insufflated to 12 mmHg. Semi-curved reusable instruments (Olympus® HiQ LS) and 30° laparoscope of 10 mm were used. The surgical technique was the same as that of traditional multiport cholecystectomy except that sutures could be used to retract the gallbladder fundus if deemed appropriate by the surgeon. Calot's triangle was dissected obtaining Strasberg's and Brunt Critical View of Safety[8 (link)] and 5 mm endoclips were placed before the transection of the cystic structures. The gallbladder was removed through the umbilical port. The rectus abdominis fascia was sutured with braided, absorbable sutures, and the skin was closed with subcuticular sutures.

Between March 2009 and June 2017, 100 adrenal glands from 93 patients underwent transperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy at the Urology and Renal Transplantation Department of Coimbra University Hospital Center: 59 (59%) underwent standard multi-port laparoscopy (group 1) and 41 (41%) underwent transumbilical laparo-endoscopic single-site adrenalectomy (group 2). Standard multi-port laparoscopy included three to four ports. The multichannel port (Triport) and bent laparoscopic instruments were supplied by Olympus Surgical (KeyMed House, Stock Road, United Kingdom). The multichannel port was placed through a 2-cm incision at the inner edge of the umbilicus and a bent instrument on the left hand was used to create the operative angle. In 30% of cases, it was needed a forceps with no port to move the liver away from the operative field. All transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site adrenalec-
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
