The Current Situation of Gynecologic Laparoendoscopic Single-Site Surgery in a Chinese Teaching Hospital | Biomedgrid

As one type of the laparoscopic surgery, the laparoendoscopic single-site (LESS) surgery has been developed in an attempt to further reduce the morbidity and scarring associated with surgical intervention [1, 2]. Single-site Gynecologic Surgery is widely carried out all over the world during the recent years. More and more gynecological endoscopic surgeries use this single-site technology, especially transumbilical single-port. In china, the number of LESS has increased dramatically from 2017. Our hospital started to carry on this technology from September 2017. Many researches have indicated advantages of it, such as less postoperative pain and quick recovery, less skin scar etc. Some results are conflicting [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]. The advantages of LESS are still uncertain.
