Study ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility of a single-port laparoscopic salpingectomy in the surgical treatment of tubal pregnancy.DesignProspective cohort study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2).SettingUniversity teaching hospitalPatientsTwenty women with tubal pregnancy, as determined by ultrasonography.InterventionAll patients have undergone single-port laparoscopic salpingectomy. Entry through a single port was established with a wound retractor as fascial retractor and a surgical glove, which served as the working channels for the laparoscopic equipment. A 30-degree laparoscope and a rigid or flexible grasper were used during the procedure.Measurements and Main ResultsSingle-port laparoscopic salpingectomy was successfully performed in all 20 patients with ectopic pregnancy. The median operative time was 55 minutes (range 25-85 minutes), and blood loss in all patients was minimal. The median difference between preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin was 1.8 g/dL (range 0–3.2 g/dL). The median postoperative hospital stay was 2 days (range 2-4 days). No complication was encountered, nor was there any need for conversion to conventional laparoscopy.ConclusionsSingle-port laparoscopic salpingectomy is feasible and promising. However, for drawing the definite conclusion of the surgical efficacy, additional investigations to compare this approach with conventional laparoscopy are needed.
