The Incidence of Trocar Site Hernia After Single-Port Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy-A Single Center Analysis and Literature Review.

Background: Single-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SLC) requires a larger initial umbilical incision than conventional multiport laparoscopic cholecystectomy (MLC). In this retrospective analysis study we compared the demographics, clinical data, and incidence of postoperative trocar site hernias (TSH) in patients undergoing SLC with those in patients undergoing MLC.

Patients And Methods: A total of 161 patients were included in this study.
