Single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) is an advanced, minimally invasive (keyhole) procedure in which the surgeon operates almost exclusively through a single entry point, typically the patient's umbilicus (navel). Special articulating instruments and access ports eliminate the need to place trochars externally for triangulation, thus allowing the creation of a small, solitary portal of entry into the abdomen.[citation needed]
SILS has been used for several common surgical procedures including hernia repair,[1] cholecystectomy[2] and nephrectomy.[3] The SILS technique has also been used in weight-loss surgery for both sleeve gastrectomy[4] and – more recently – for laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB).[5]
