Abstract:

In recent years, transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery has been widely used in hysteromyomectomy. However, uterine fibroids in special parts (cervix, broad ligament) are often treated with open or multi-port laparoscopic surgery due to their complex surrounding anatomical relationships and high surgical difficulty. With the development of technology and the improvement of operating skills, the removal of uterine fibroids in special parts through transumbilical single-site laparoscopy has been achieved. In this paper, the operative difficulties and indications, preoperative evaluation and preparation, operative key points and techniques of this operation are described.

Key words: Transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery, Uterine fibroids in special parts, Cervical fibroids, Broad ligament fibroids
