Modified single-port versus multiport laparoscopic choledochal cysts excision and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy: a retrospective comparative cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The feasibility, benefit, and safety of multiport laparoscopic choledochal cyst (CDC) excision and Roux-en-Y hepaticoenterostomy (MPCH) have been consistently confirmed. Single-port laparoscopic CDC excision and Roux-en-Y hepaticoenterostomy (SPCH) has advantages of less traumatic and more cosmetic beneficial, it has been reported in some case series, but it is technically challenging. We propose a modified technique to reduce technical difficulty in performing SPCH. The safety and feasibility of modified SPCH were compared with those of conventional multiport laparoscopic CDC excision.

Methods

A total of 43 consecutive patients who diagnosed with CDC by preoperative magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and underwent SPCH (n=24) and MPCH (n=19) for c
