Reduced port laparoscopic surgery is a fast-developing topic for the laparoscopic surgeon, with the emergence of a number of new techniques as well as new instruments.

Edited by surgeons who have pioneered the single-incision approach, this volume provides extensive information for the beginning surgeon, examining different operation techniques and covering the advantages and pitfalls of reduced port laparoscopic surgery. In addition, the text provides the foundation for new ideas to further develop skills for the advanced laparoscopic surgeon.

From the book reviews:

"This is a manual on reduced-port laparoscopic surgery (RPLS), written by experts in this narrow niche of minimally-invasive surgery. ... This is a high-quality book, well written and well referenced. It will be useful for advanced laparoscopic surgeons who wish to expand their practice to include RPLS or SILS, or to learn techniques which might be transferable to robotic surgery." (Jessica K. Smith, Doody's Book Reviews, October, 2014)
