Abstract
Laparoendoscopic single-site (LESS) surgery and/or reduced port laparoscopic surgery (RPLS) is a new surgical modality that produces increased cosmetic benefits compared to conventional endoscopic surgery. A number of medical device companies have designed single-port devices to be placed through 15–25 mm open fascial incisions. This rapidly progressing technique is facilitated by developments and innovations in devices, allowing surgeons to perform a various LESS/RPLS procedures in safe with less stress. This chapter aims to summarize the characteristics of each multi-channel port devices, which is available at present for LESS/RPLS. A comprehensive electronic literature search was conducted in May 2013 using the Medline database to identify all publications relating to LESS/RPLS. Various multi-channel port devices are currently available for LESS/RPLS. Each port has advantages for application in specific disciplines. Further investigations will be needed in order to evaluate the efficacy and safety of multi-channel port devices in LESS/RPLS.
