Abstract

Single-incision laparoscopic surgery has recently been investigated as a novel approach to colorectal pathology. This article describes 3 cases of single-incision laparoscopic sigmoidectomy with rectopexy for the treatment of rectal prolapse. We demonstrate our surgical approach and results from these initial patients treated with this novel technique.
