AI Article Synopsis

  • Single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) is considered a less invasive option but is challenging due to the need for specialized skills and the left-right reversal of instruments.
  • The complexity of using endoscopic instruments in SILS increases the risk during surgery.
  • The study presents the "cross hand technique," which helps surgeons move instruments more intuitively and improves manipulation.

Article Abstract

Single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) was developed as a less invasive surgical procedure, but it remains difficult because of its specific skills and left-right reversal of the instruments. Such a difference makes manipulating endoscopic instruments more challenging and increases the risk. In this study, we introduce the cross hand technique allowing the surgeon to manipulate instruments with intuitive movement.
