Single-Incision Pediatric Laparoscopic Surgery: Surgical Outcomes, Feasibility Indication, and the Systematic Review.

Single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILs) has reported the evidence in basic and advanced pediatric laparoscopy. The objective was to review the feasibility and outcomes between basic and advanced procedures of the conventional laparoscopic surgery (CLs) and the SILs at our institute, and to compare the results with the published studies in a systematic review and meta-analysis.
