Background
The international multicentre registry
Method
Consecutive patients undergoing single‐port colorectal surgery were enrolled from 11 European centres between March 2010 and March 2014. Data were analysed to assess patient‐, technique‐ and procedure‐dependent parameters. A validated sex‐adjusted risk chart was developed for prediction of single‐port colorectal surgery‐related conversion and complications.
Results
Some 1769 patients were enrolled, 937 with benign and 832 with malignant conditions. Procedures were completed without additional trocars in 1628 patients (92·0 per cent). Conversion to open surgery was required in 75 patients (4·2 per cent) and was related to male sex and
Conclusion
The feasibility and safety, conversion and complication profile demonstrated here provides guidance for patient selection.
