ソロサージャリーシステムを用いた単孔式手術

抄録

Objective: Laparoscopic surgery is cosmetically superior to laparotomy. Recently, single-site laparoscopic surgery (SSL) is being performed in clinical practice because it requires a small incision. However, owing to the technical difficulty in performing this procedure, it is performed in gynecology departments only at a few hospitals. Forceps interfere with the charge-coupled device camera used during SSL (single-site laparoscopic surgery) owing to the restricted surgical field available in such cases. The SSL operation is more difficult than multi-port laparoscopic surgery owing to technical obstacles. We report the efficacy of the scope holder system (ViKY EP system™, Endocontrol, La Tronche, France) used during SSL in such technically difficult cases.

Case presentation: A 22-year-old pregnant woman was diagnosed with a left ovarian tumor. She underwent SSL after delivery. The surgery was performed by a single surgeon using the ViKY EP system™.

Conclusion: The ViKY EP system™ may be a safe to reduce operator stress during operations.
