Background: The advent of endoscopic surgery has radically changed surgery worldwide.The concept of minimally invasive procedures has spread quickly, allowing less pain and more rapid recovery for patients. The authors have developed a device for a new surgical approach, the so-called single trocar access (SITRACC). This study report the first multicenter study of cholecystectomies performed with SITRACC.
Methods: Between December 2008 and June 2009, 81 single trocar cholecystectomies were performed in 9 Brazilian surgery centers.
Results: The average operative time was 68 minutes. In all, 10 surgeries required 1 additional trocar because of technical problems, and 3 cholecystectomies were converted to standard video laparoscopies.
Conclusion: A cholecystectomy using the SITRACC method is feasible and safe.

Background: The existing research data cannot fully prove the advantages of single-site Da Vinci robotic surgery (RSS) compared with single-site laparoscopic surgery (LESS) in the treatment of gynecological diseases.
Aims: To evaluate the effectiveness and cost of RSS and LESS in the treatment of gynecological diseases. To provide a theoretical basis for RSS to replace LESS in the treatment of gynecological diseases.

Purpose: To determine Asia Pacific cataract surgeons' attitudes toward surgical waste and toward reusing supplies and pharmaceuticals.
Design: Multinational survey of APAO members METHODS: An online survey link was distributed to APAO members through their national ophthalmology societies. Responses were deidentified and compared with those from identical survey questionnaires previously distributed to North American and European cataract surgeons.

Background: Low-impact laparoscopy (LIL), a surgical protocol using mini-laparoscopic instruments and low-and-stable pneumoperitoneal pressure, was developed as a minimally invasive approach to mitigate local and systemic effects of laparoscopy. However, its real clinical impact is still poorly documented.
Objective: To evaluate LIL impact on the postoperative recovery quality 6 hours after laparoscopic hysterectomy (henceforth 6H postsurgery) compared to conventional laparoscopy.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and quality of a standardized technique for single-port laparoscopic paraaortic lymphadenectomy guided by a novel anatomical concept.
Methods: This single-center prospective study enrolled patients with gynecological cancers requiring paraaortic lymphadenectomy from February 2022 to May 2025. All patients underwent single-port laparoscopic paraaortic lymphadenectomy using a standardized technique grounded in a novel "renal vein angle" anatomical concept.

Objective: To summarize the diagnosis and treatment experience of small intestinal duplication malformations in our hospital.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 90 children undergoing surgery for intestinal duplication malformations at our hospital from October 2019 to October 2024. All patients underwent transumbilical single-site laparoscopic-assisted resection.
