What is the only cut?

The only cut concerns the type of surgery, also called the only incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS ™). It is a surgery, which is performed exclusively by one cut, which allows the use of laparoscopic tools. This is a choice procedure in many cases, because compared to many other types of surgery has shortened pain and healing time. Siles ™ is minimally invasive and leaves only a small scar after recovery, often barely visible.

Surgery of one section can be used to treat many different conditions, usually any that can be treated with laparoscopic techniques requiring multiple cuts. Some of the more common uses for the SILS ™ method are the removal of gallbladder, gynecological surgery and bariatric surgery. This method is usually not used for any type of emergency surgery, but can be used in many cases of optional procedures. Depending on the purpose of the surgery, the use of one section surgery may be limited to the patients who have so far surgery.

In a typical Sils ™ operation, the cut of 0.75 inches (20 mm) is performed directly via Umbilicus or the abdomen button. The access port is placed in the hole and all tools used for surgery go into the abdomen through this port. The abdomen is usually inflated by air to allow easy viewing of the organs through a small illuminated camera on a flexible shaft.

The tools used during one section operation usually have very long, extended handles. The handles and the tools themselves are relatively small to allow them to easily fit into the surgical port. They often have plasticized or rubberized handles to make the surgeons easier to maintain a firm grip during the procedure.

patients can benefit from using one cut surgery in two main ways. The first way is reduction in the number of areas that must be recovered after surgery. Because there is only one opening is the usualLe less pain and only one place to take care of. This is particularly important in bariatric surgery because obese patients have a higher risk of complications at the point of cut due to the disintegration of adipose tissue after surgery.

Another advantage that is important to many people is the lack of visible scar after surgery. Since opening for one section surgery is usually performed directly by the abdomen button, it is disguised after it has recovered and is usually not visible. Conventional laparoscopic surgery usually requires four cuts, and each creates pain, requires monitoring after surgery and leaves at least a small scar after healing.
