Does Single-Port Laparoscopy Surgery Differ From Laparoscopy?
Although single-port laparoscopy and laparoscopy surgeries utilise relatively similar instruments, they are still quite different. This difference comes from the number of incisions required with each procedure.
While conventional laparoscopy surgery requires several incisions on the belly, single-port laparoscopy aims at decreasing the number of incisions to only one port. This is the main reason the single-port laparoscopy is considered an advanced option of laparoscopy, with the possible advantage of better cosmesis.
