Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS) is a recent form of surgery that i have helped develop. It involves only one cut in the skin, usually at the belly button, which allows even faster recovery than standard keyhole. I have been amongst the first in the world to carry out this surgery enabling several patients to go home on the day of surgery with minimal pain. Here is my presentation on SILS which shows my results from standard laparoscopic cancer surgery (with recent hospital stays of only 3 days) which may be improveable in the future. It also shows me performing a SILS appendicectomy and SILS incisional hernia repair who were both home a few hours later.
