Abstract

Background: Laparoscopic surgery is now a widely accepted treatment modality in every field of general surgery. A periumbilical is a commonly used method for the initial approach of the laparoscope into the abdomen. The intraumbilical incision is being used more frequently, with the increasing cases of single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS), which has recently been proven to be a feasible alternative for conventional laparoscopic surgery with better cosmetic merit. Methods: This was a Prospective Cohort Study. Study was conducted at Department of General Surgery, Burdwan Medical College & Hospital, West Bengal from 1st September 2018 to 31st August 2020 A total of 100 patients were selected and randomly divided in two groups with 50 patients in each group. 50 patients received periumbilical incision and 50 patients received Intraumbilical incision. Data analysis was performed using SPSS statistical package software version 23.0 for Windows (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). Results: Regarding sex distribution we found in IU group 28 (56%) were females and 22 (44%) were males with a male to female ratio of 1.27:1. and in PU group, 30 (60%) patients were males while 20 (40%) were females. There was no difference in operation time between the two groups.

Conclusions: Our results show that despite the widespread belief that an intraumbilical incision will cause more wound infection and incisional hernia, actual wound complication rates do not differ from the cases with periumbilical incision. The cosmetic survey score was significantly higher in the IU group compared to PU group.
