文摘

Laparoendoscopic single site surgery (LESS) has been accompanied by the development of a new generation of purpose-built optics and instruments. Despite all these, suturing still represents a challenge in LESS. The authors describe a technique of urachal cyst excision by LESS, with extramucosal partial cystectomy and cystorrhaphy performed with the SILS™ Stitch instrument. The technique is safe and feasible, offering the advantages of reducing the number of abdominal incisions to one that can be hidden in the umbilicus, with less post-operative pain and improved cosmesis. The extramucosal technique shortens the period of postoperative catheterization and hospitalization.
