Abstract Single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) has been proposed as a less invasive alternative to multi-port laparoscopic surgery, providing better cosmesis and less pain. Complexity and loss of triangulation, however, hindered the widespread use of SILS and resulted in the technique being regarded as too cumbersome. Later with the advent of robotic surgery, single-site surgery was possible with restored triangulation, adding 3D visualization, enhanced surgeon{u2019}s control and better ergonomics. Single-site Robotic cholecystectomy (SSRC) has been described, and despite its increasing popularity, many questions remain unanswered, including cost and revenue for the hospitals |
