Single Port Thorascopic Surgery Using the SILS® Tool as a Novel Method in the Surgical Treatment of Pneumothorax

Diagnosis and treatment of primary spontaneous pneumothorax

“…VATS for PSP can be accomplished mostly through three ports, but two or single port(s) with the use of single incision port laparoscopic surgery (SILS) system has been reported in recent years (Jutley et al, 2005;Gigirey Castro et al, 2010). In our experience, the two-or one-port approach can only be applied in selective cases, and the three-port approach is still preferred because the telescope and instruments are more easily manipulated.…”

Single-port thoracoscopic surgery for pneumothorax under two-lung ventilation with carbon dioxide insufflation

“…Some clinicians have reported the feasibility and safety of SITS performed using a SILS port (13,31). The SILS port was originally designed for single-port laparoscopic surgery; its application to VATS has enabled a more accurate lining up of instruments and improved reticulating endoscopic …”

Single-port endoscopic surgery in newborns and infants

“…Идея введения разных инструментов через одно устройство была предложена специалистами, работающими в области однопортовой хирургии [56][57][58][59][60][61]. Растущая потребность в оптимальной платформе для однопортового доступа вызвала появление большого количества мультиканальных устройств, таких как: X-Cone, S-Cone and EndoCone («Karl Storz GmbH», Germany), KeyPort («Richard Wolf GmbH», Germany), SILS-port («Covidien Inc.», Switzerland), Uni-X («Pnavel Systems», USA), AirSeal («SurgiQuest», USA).…”
