Lower abdominal wall pain and contusion in single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
There is a surge in interest in single-incision laparoscopic surgery in the recent years. Due to entry of all the ports and instruments from the same incision and obliquity of the instruments, the lowermost port exerts repeated pressure on the infraumbilical abdominal wall. We are reporting 2 cases of single-incision laparoscopic surgery cholecystectomy who presented with lower abdominal pain and contusion in the post operative period.
