Accompanied by the method of preperitoneal hydrodissection and a totally extraperitoneal enclosing suture, single-port laparoscopic herniorrhaphy would be an effective procedure as conventional inguinal herniotomy. Single-port laparoscopic herniorrhaphy was associated with long operation time and a reduction in contralateral hernia development. However, every 4 patent processus vaginalis would require intervention to prevent 1 metachronous hernia.

The transaxillary endoscopic technique, a working cavern created under the fascia of the pectoralis major, offers a safe and straightforward way to surgically manage persistent muscular torticollis while preserving neurovascular structures, exempting extradissection of noninvolved tissues and avoiding the potential for poor cosmesis from any neck scar.

Emergency laparoscopic surgery is technically feasible in most children with acute colonic perforations and fibropurulent peritonitis. However, extensive intestinal involvement with multiple perforations should be an indication for converting to open surgery.
