Article Abstract
Background: To analyze and compare the clinical efficacy of transumbilical single-incision laparoscopic surgery TAPP(SILS-TAPP) and conventional laparoscopic TAPP(CL-TAPP) in the treatment of senile inguinal hernia.
Methods: From January 2019 to June 2021, a total of 221 elderly patients (≥60 years old) with inguinal hernia received SILS-TAPP and CL-TAPP in General Surgery Department of Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University. The perioperative indicators, postoperative complications and follow-up of the two groups were compared to explore the feasibility and superiority of SILS-TAPP in the treatment of inguinal hernia in the elderly.
Results: There was no difference in demographic characteristics between the two groups. The mean operation time (28.6 ± 4.2 min vs 28.2 ± 5.3 min) in the SILS-TAPP group was not significantly different from that in the CL-TAPP group (Ρ = 0.623), and there was no significant increase in hospital costs(Ρ = 0.748). The intraoperative blood loss (7.4 ± 3.4 ml), VAS score on the postoperative day (2.2 ± 0.7), mean time of resuming activity (8.2 ± 1.9 h) and mean postoperative hospital stay (0.8 ± 0.2 d) in the SILS-TAPP group were better than those in the CL-TAPP group (Ρ < 0. 05).There was no statistical difference in the overall incidence of intraoperative (Ρ = 0.128) and postoperative complications (Ρ = 0.125) between the two groups.
Conclusion: Single-incision laparoscopic surgery TAPP (SILS-TAPP) is feasible and effective in elderly patients, providing a new alternative surgical method for patients who can tolerate general anesthesia.

Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has been widely performed as the gold standard for BGDs. Single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) was considered as an option for minimizing surgical injuries and improving outcomes. However, the benefit of this novel technique, especially with conventional and inflexible instruments and laparoscopy, is still controversial.

Background: Autogenous rib cartilage is a common material for rhinoplasty, especially for nose extension and revision. At present, open surgery is the most mature method for rib extraction. However, it has many disadvantages, such as long recovery and visible incision.

Background: Among the rapidly developing single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) techniques, transumbilical single-incision LC is increasingly replacing the traditional LC, with advantages of minimal invasion, slight postoperative pain, faster recovery. Despite the advantages mentioned above, the currently available specialized single-port laparoscopic instruments are hindered by high costs and limited applications, challenging their widespread use in medical facilities.
Aim: To design a two-point lifting/retracting (TPLR) technique for transumbilical single-port LC (TUSPLC) based on the anatomical features of the Calot's triangle (or cystohepatic triangle) and investigate its surgical feasibility.
Unlabelled: Appendicitis, a pediatric emergency, is usually managed with conventional three-port laparoscopic appendectomy (CTLA). Transumbilical laparoscopic-assisted appendectomy (TULAA) offers a novel approach, matching the benefits of CTLA. This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of TULAA versus CTLA in children by incorporating newly reported outcomes (ileus, readmission), providing separate analyses for complicated and uncomplicated appendicitis, and updating existing evidence.

Aim: To compare the gold standard method of managing acute appendicitis; laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) to transumbilical laparoscopic-assisted appendectomy (TULAA).
Methods: A randomized clinical study of consecutive pediatric patients (age under 13 years) undergoing appendectomy for noncomplicated acute appendicitis was conducted at a tertiary center in Jordan. Data collected included; perioperative parameters, operative time, gas time, postoperative hospital stay, pathology, complications, pain, and cost.
