What is SILS (Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery)?
SILS (Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery), or single incision laparoscopic surgery, is a modern, minimally invasive surgical method used when intra-abdominal organs such as the gallbladder require surgical intervention. In this technique, the surgeon performs all the necessary surgical procedures to remove the gallbladder through just one small incision (usually the belly button). The major advantage of this method is that it leaves less scarring than traditional laparoscopic surgery and allows patients to recover faster. The SILS method is used for surgical procedures for gallstones, gallbladder inflammation (cholecystitis) or other problems in the gallbladder.

How is SILS (Single Hole) Gallbladder Surgery Performed?
The SILS procedure is performed under general anesthesia. The surgeon makes only one small incision in the patient’s abdomen (usually through the belly button). Through this incision, a laparoscopic camera and surgical instruments are inserted. The images from the camera allow the surgeon to see the organs inside the abdomen with high resolution, so the procedure is performed more precisely and safely.

1. Preparation and Anesthesia: Before the surgery, the patient’s health condition is evaluated and general anesthesia is administered. This procedure allows the patient to sleep completely and makes the surgical intervention painless.
2. Surgical Intervention: The surgeon makes only one small incision in the abdomen (usually the belly button). Through this incision, a laparoscopic camera and surgical instruments are inserted. The gallbladder is separated from the surrounding tissues and removed outside the body.
3. Recovery: After surgery, patients can usually be discharged the same day and the healing process is much faster. The SILS method requires much less pain and recovery time than traditional surgery.

Conditions and Symptoms Requiring SILS Gallbladder Surgery
SILS gallbladder surgery is usually performed for the following conditions:

1. Gallstones (cholecystitis): Stones can build up in the gallbladder and cause pain, inflammation and even infection. These stones can block the bile duct and cause serious health problems.
2. Inflammation of the gallbladder (cholecystitis): Inflammation of the gallbladder can cause symptoms such as extreme pain, nausea and fever. This condition usually requires removal of the gallbladder.
3. Gallbladder Cancer: Cancerous cells in the gallbladder may require removal of the gallbladder.
4. Other Gallbladder Problems: Dysfunctions or infections in the gallbladder may require surgical intervention.
