About

The aim of this current study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of a novel technique which is the 5-5-5-8 where the camera port is 5 mm.

Full description

More than 50 different LC procedures are described in the literature, mostly as a result of changes made by surgeons to enhance cosmetic and postoperative results. Some adjustments include port size and/or number reductions relative to conventional LC usage. Each of these methods has benefits and drawbacks, and each one is appropriate for usage in particular circumstances.

The aim of this current study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of a novel technique which is the 5-5-5-8 where the camera port is 5 mm.

1. at 6 month follow up
