Comparison of novel two‐port and conventional multiport laparoscopic surgery approaches for benign adnexal masses: The Bagli method

“…In our study, total incision length of TPLS was 15–16 mm, and this was the lowest incision length among the other surgeries in Figure 1, so this may affect the selection criteria of TPLS from the patient's perspective. It is possible to decrease the 5‐mm auxiliary port incisions using a 3‐mm percutaneous instrument, but there is no 3‐mm auxiliary instrument that has its own bipolar energy function, and of course, the 3‐mm operative tip requires caution in order to not break down when making tractions and dissections in the same way that a mini laparoscopy does 10,11,31 . We developed this technique with no intention to replace any of the previously described port‐reducing or other methods but only to diversify the surgical approaches.…”

“…5 Currently, surgeons dealing with minimally invasive surgery are able to choose between conventional multiport laparoscopic surgery (CMLS), laparoendoscopic single-site (LESS) surgery, robotic LESS surgery, vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES), combined vaginal to laparoscopic surgery and mini laparoscopic percutaneous approaches according to the facilities of their centers and their skills or experiences. [6][7][8][9][10][11] In this study, two-port laparoscopic surgery (TPLS), which was performed in some cases of free benign adnexal pathologies through 5 and 10-mm ports through which conservative surgery was not performed, has been presented in the literature first according to our best of knowledge. These pathologies can be listed as tubal ectopic pregnancy, hydrosalpinx, ovarian serous cyst adenoma, dermoid cyst, ovarian torsion, and so on in our study.…”

“…Surgical options in terms of the management of a benign adnexal mass include ovarian cystectomy, salpingostomy or excisional procedure such as salpingo‐oophorectomy for indications of tubal ectopic pregnancies and ovarian cysts that need surgery 5 . Currently, surgeons dealing with minimally invasive surgery are able to choose between conventional multiport laparoscopic surgery (CMLS), laparoendoscopic single‐site (LESS) surgery, robotic LESS surgery, vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES), combined vaginal to laparoscopic surgery and mini laparoscopic percutaneous approaches according to the facilities of their centers and their skills or experiences 6–11 .

Introductory Chapter: Addressing the Challenges of Laparoscopic Surgery

“…The da Vinci surgical system is the most extended robotic platform worldwide for laparoscopic surgery. However, recently many other robotic systems are under development, including additional features such as enhanced portability and force feedback [22,23].…”

Intelligent Information-Guided Robotic Surgery

“…Senhance surgical robotic system (Figure 2) [5][6][7] was originally developed in Europe under the name of "ALF-X", and then sold to US company TransEnterix, Inc. It received CE mark and cleared FDA for major laparoscopic surgery.…”
