Abstract

Laparoscopic single port surgery (LESS) offers certain advantages, such as the reduction of surgical trauma, less postoperative pain, less need for analgesics and excellent aesthetic results. The use of a single surgical port provides the opportunity to combine procedures in a single session.

We present the case of a 59-year-old patient with a history of left renal colic and recurrent urinary tract infections, as well as long-standing biliary colic, both treated symptomatically. The tomographic study demonstrates the presence of atrophic left kidney, without uptake contrast, as well as concomitant biliary pathology. She undergoes laparoscopic nephrectomy and cholecystectomy with LESS technique, with adequate surgical and aesthetic results.

The LESS technique is a viable option in the minimally invasive management of different pathologies. Performing simultaneous surgical procedures for the same approach could avoid the need for another hospitalization and another surgery; doing it, through a single port, provides adequate aesthetic results, as well as allowing the approach of anatomical sites distant from each other through a single incision.
