Hybrid Single-incision Laparoscopic Restorative Proctocolectomy with Ileal Pouch Anal Anastomosis for Ulcerative Colitis

摘要

Single-incision laparoscopic surgery is a rapidly evolving field as a bridge between traditional laparoscopic surgery and natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery. We report one of the initial clinical experiences from India for Laparoscopic Restorative Proctocolectomy and Ileal Pouch Anal Anastomosis (RPC IPAA) with this new technique. A SILSTM port was used through the curved intra-umbilical 25-mm incision. A 12-mm port was placed in the right iliac fossa at the ileostomy site. Another 5 mm port was placed in the left iliac fossa at the drain site. 10 mm 0 degree lens was used through the SILS port. Two 5 mm port were placed from the SILS port. Right iliac fossa port was the surgeon’s right hand port and left hand port was 5 mm SILS port. Left iliac fossa port and 5 mm SILS port were used by the assistant surgeon for retraction. The specimen was delivered through the umbilical incision by extending the incision for 1.5 cm on either side. Ileal J Pouch was created extracorporeally and then anastomosed to the anal canal with the circular stapler laparoscopically. The diverting loop ileostomy was brought out through the right iliac fossa 12 mm port. The pelvic drain was brought out through the left iliac fossa port. The procedure was completed without any perioperative complications. Operative time was 256 minutes. Postoperative follow-up did not reveal any umbilical wound complication. Till date we have performed 26 Laparoscopic RPC with IPAA and this was the first Single Incision Laparoscopic RPC with IPAA. For experienced laparoscopic colorectal surgeons, single incision laparoscopic colectomy (SILC) is feasible. Single-incision laparoscopic colectomy is a promising alternative method as minimally invasive abdominal surgery for the treatment of patients requiring colectomy.
